Your patch is OK per se, but please note that it is a mandatory requirement that CONFIG_SYS_HZ == 1000. So if you have any board where this is not the case, this board needs to be fixed, too.

Thank you for reviewing my patch.
I didn't know that it is a mandatory requirement that CONFIG_SYS_HZ == 1000. I grep'ed for CONFIG_SYS_HZ in README and under doc/, but I could not find any description about it.
$ grep -r CONFIG_SYS_HZ README doc/* doc/README.LED:(CONFIG_SYS_HZ / <N>) where <N> is the frequency of the blink. Typical values
And I couldn't find that what value should be return in ulong get_timer(ulong base); I hope "how to implement system timer" documented.
Best regards,
Tetsuyuki Kobayashi

If that is a hard requirement, then I don't see a point to applying this patch. I also don't know why the CONFIG_SYS_HZ variable exists.

I decided this doesn't hurt and it sort-of documents what "must be" (tm).
Applied, thanks.
