Reuse the gd->tbl value for timestamp and add gd->lastinc for lastinc bss
values in the OMAP timer driver.

The usage of bss values in drivers before initialisation of bss is forbidden.
In that special case some data in .rel.dyn gets corrupted.

Tested on OMAP4 pandaboard with codesourcery 2010.09 gcc 4.5.1 and is
seen to fix the issue I reported on
http://groups.google.com/group/pandaboard/browse_thread/thread/d59461353a5e693f

Tests:
on u-boot prompt:
sleep 5 (test if time delays are still functional) -> Pass
mmc boot to MeeGo filesystem -> Pass

Thanks a bunch Dirk - just had started to debug this and steve pointed this out.

Nishanth Menon

To the custodian who has to apply this: Regarding the RFC in the 
subject: Now that this patch is confirmed to work, will you apply this 
patch as is? Or do I have to resend it without 'RFC'?

Many tanks for testing!

Works for me on:

U-Boot 2010.12-rc2-00245-g13e984c (Dec 10 2010 - 08:28:22)
OMAP3530-GP ES3.0, CPU-OPP2, L3-165MHz, Max CPU Clock 600 mHz
OMAP3 Beagle board + LPDDR/NAND

Thanks!

But mmc does not longer work on my beagle board... searching for it

User error, mmc works fine, sorry for the noise.

If Sandeep agrees, I wil pull this directly, as this fixes a real
problem for many of us.

Sorry for the delay in testing, jury duty this week :-(

I build tested for Beagle, Overo, Panda, and SDP4430 - no issues.

Run tested on Beagle, Overo, and Panda - no issues.
