Sorry, I meant in the fixes series I have posted for dmtimer, I am
adding a new function called omap_dm_timer_populate_errata() that is
using cpu_is_xxxx() [1]. I had done this a while back, but now I see
that we want to get away from doing that right?

I was planning on sending you a pull request for that series on Monday
but now I am wondering if I should fix this now or later. I was hoping
this series would make 3.8.

Cheers
Jon
