[PATCH v1 3/3] arm64: dts: mt7622: Drop the general purpose timer node

[Ryder Lee]

The crash http://termbin.com/zitb is caused by the timer register
into system in early pahse during kernel boot, but the clock
sources didn't get ready at that time.

A better way is to switch to use CLK_OF_DECLARE() in driver for things
that need them early, but this node is actually useless in MT7622.
So we drop it.

Oh, I didn't get it right. Yes, there is no need to apply to the stable
trees.

@Matthias, could you help to drop the CC tag when you take this patch

Oh, I didn't get it right. Yes, there is no need to apply to the stable
trees.

I suppose the root cause is, that the driver doesn't check the error
timer_of_init returned.

Would you mind to test the following patch to see if this fixes the problem?

Subject: [PATCH] clocksource/drivers/timer-mediatek: error out on probe defer

If the clocks are not yet present, because they are loaded after
the timer is initialized, we are unable to boot.
Check if the return value of timer_of_init and return on EPROBE_DEFER.

Got it. So from my research we would need to use CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER for:
    mainpll (pll)

    syspll4_d16 (div)

    f10m_ref_sel (mux)

    infra_apxgpt_pd (gate)

Anyway, as a quick fix we can delete the device node. I'll reword you commit
message and I'll also reword commit message for 1/3

In the future please try to not put links into the commit message but explain
what is happening.

Matthias
