Commit Message

Jiaxun Yang May 21, 2023, 11 a.m. UTC 
Previous implementation of MIPS cp0_timer computes a
cp0_count_ns based on input clock. However rounding
error of cp0_count_ns can affect precision of cp0_timer.

Using clock API and a divider for cp0_timer, so we can
use clock_ns_to_ticks/clock_ns_to_ticks to avoid rounding
issue.

Also workaround the situation that in such handler flow:

count = read_c0_count()
write_c0_compare(count)

If timer had not progressed when compare was written, the
interrupt would trigger again.

This seems fixed MTTCG booting issue on malta 5kEc with SMP.
I'm going to do more test and see if we can enable MTTCG for
mips64el.

Thanks, queued to mips-next.
