Ding Tianhong bb42ca4740 clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Work around Hisilicon erratum 161010101
Erratum Hisilicon-161010101 says that the ARM generic timer counter "has
the potential to contain an erroneous value when the timer value
changes". Accesses to TVAL (both read and write) are also affected due
to the implicit counter read. Accesses to CVAL are not affected.

The workaround is to reread the system count registers until the value
of the second read is larger than the first one by less than 32, the
system counter can be guaranteed not to return wrong value twice by
back-to-back read and the error value is always larger than the correct
one by 32. Writes to TVAL are replaced with an equivalent write to CVAL.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
