The clock-frequency property is at best a dodgy workaround, and this is even worse. Please fix your firmware to configure and enabled this clock before entering Linux, and to program CNTFRQ appropriately. As this path stands, NAK. As a more general note, you *must* update device tree bidnings if adding properties.

I'll add that failure to do so breaks other subsystems which do rely on CNTFRQ to be correctly programmed *on each CPU* (like KVM and Xen). Please follow the requirements of the architecture and don't just paper over such a bug. > As this path stands, NAK. Seconded. M.
