So a real AST2500 evb board boot fines with this branch but the timer
model in QEMU crashes miserably :
[ 0.000000] NR_IRQS:16 nr_irqs:16 16
Floating point exception (core dumped)
that is just before :
[ 0.000000] clocksource: FTTMR010-TIMER2: mask: 0xffffffff
max_cycles: 0xffffffff, max_idle_ns: 77222644334 ns
[ 0.000025] sched_clock: 32 bits at 24MHz, resolution 40ns, wraps
every 86767015915ns
Something to look at in QEMU.
Joel, do you confirm ?
Thanks,
C.
