From 3f71be237ce37e0131973ebfa33b326bc51d743e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marc Zyngier Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:56:12 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: arch_timer: stop virtual timer when booted in HYP mode When booting the kernel, a bootloader could have left the virtual timer ticking away, potentially generating interrupts. This could be troublesome if the user of the virtual timer is not careful when enabling the interrupt. In order to avoid any surprise, stop the virtual timer from interrupting us when booted in HYP mode, as we'll use the physical timer in this case.
