This is what I had in mind. I also considered making it a config knob (possibly just auto-selected based on $ARCH) whether to use get_timer() or get_ticks(), but that becomes quite ugly.
I hesitate a bit, moving with this generic code from get_timer() to get_ticks() for all boards. Did you test this patch on other platforms, like some ARM boards?
Please note that I don't reject it - just asking.
Yeah, I'm not really too happy about it myself, exactly because it affects all arches/platforms. And no, I don't have other hardware handy unfortunately. So it's very much an RFC where I hope someone with knowledge of the various arches can say whether one can expect get_ticks() to be at least as widely available as get_timer().
I'll try to test it on a non-powerpc platform soon'ish.
Thanks, Stefan
