Access to registers is guarded by ingenic_tcu_{enable,disable}_regs()
so the stop bit can be cleared before accessing a timer channel, but
those functions did not clear the stop bit on SoCs with a global TCU
clock gate.
Testing on the X1000 has revealed that the stop bits must be cleared
_and_ the global TCU clock must be ungated to access timer registers.
This appears to be the norm on Ingenic SoCs, and is specified in the
documentation for the X1000 and numerous JZ47xx SoCs.
If the stop bit isn't cleared, register writes don't take effect and
the system can be left in a broken state, eg. the watchdog timer may
not run.
The bug probably went unnoticed because stop bits are zeroed when
the SoC is reset, and the kernel does not set them unless a timer
gets disabled at runtime. However, it is possible that a bootloader
or a previous kernel (if using kexec) leaves the stop bits set and
we should not rely on them being cleared.
Fixing this is easy: have ingenic_tcu_{enable,disable}_regs() always
clear the stop bit, regardless of the presence of a global TCU gate.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
