As mentioned in this commit:
arm: zynq: Don't use arm_global_timer with cpufreq
61f1fc7e9258a169ac8afb5ddf657a181e60d052
arm_global_timer depends on the CPU frequency. With cpufreq altering the
CPU frequency arm_global_timer will not maintain a stable time base. So
arm_global_timer must not be the clocksource when cpufreq is enabled.
The above commit tries to solve this at build time by only selecting
CONFIG_ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER if CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is disabled. This is not
always sufficient because other machs can also enable
CONFIG_ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER.
Therefore: If built with CONFIG_CPU_FREQ and CONFIG_ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER,
disable (on Zynq) the arm_global_timer devicetree node at boot before
clock sources are initialized. This ensures that arm_global_timer will
not be selected clocksource.
