Hi all,

This patch series adds support for hardware where the per-cpu tick timer
cannot wake up from deep idle states (i.e. CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP is set)
yet there is a secondary per-cpu timer which is generally less preferable
(i.e. slow to access) yet capable of delivering the wakeup.

The meat and potatoes are in patches 3 and 4, but since I've not hacked
on this part of the kernel before I would appreciate feedback on any of
the changes I'm proposing.

Cheers,

Will
