I think this should be the default for the timers as that counter
does not stop during deeper idle states.

Yes sorry it's been a bit crazy with branches to get this
header clean up done.. If it applies to master it should
be easy to apply on others.

...

Can't we assume that the default timer is omap[234]_sync32k_timer to
avoid renaming the timer entries in all the board files?

Then we just need a new timer entries for the hardware that does
not have the sycn32k_timer available?

Tony
