It always comes back to this :-) . And as always the counter-argument would be 
that I cannot influence the current bootloader, there are already devices 
shipping in this constellation. And of course quite some more SoCs using this 
pattern.

Yeah, that was my other idea - doing this as a clock. So would you be ok, with 
the arch-timer getting the possibility to handle an optional clock?
