From aab4673b599d8037c713afce40fabae398ca96c4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Hogan Date: Fri, 22 Apr 2016 18:19:14 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: malta-time: Start GIC count before syncing to RTC The sampling of the GIC counter on Malta after observing a rising edge of the RTC update flag differs slightly between the first and second sample, with the first sample also calling gic_start_count(). The two samples should really be taken as similarly as possible to get the most accurate figure, so move the gic_start_count() call before detecting the rising edge.
