    OMAP: counter_32k: init clocksource as part of machine timer init · d8328f3b
    Paul Walmsley authored
    After commit dc548fbb ("ARM: omap: convert
    sched_clock() to use new infrastructure"), OMAPs that use the 32KiHz
    "synchronization timer" as their clocksource crash during boot:

    This is due to the recent ARM init_sched_clock() changes and the late
    initialization of the counter_32k clock source.  More information here:

    Fix by initializing the counter_32k clocksource during the machine timer
    initialization.
