Heiko, Caesar,

I am wondering if the dsb() is really necessary. Is it possible you test
the timer by removing this instruction ? Otherwise I will have to setup
my board again and it will take awhile.

As the @Arnd suggestion,

That's seem ok for me.
Although the writel_relaxed() and writel() a bit different with DSB()
and L2's sync.

Do I need send the patch v3? I will test that on my board.

I'm no sure that why the clocksource driver didn't use the
writel_relaxed() to work.
Okay, I think we should according to the suggestion or required.

I think the patch is trivial enough I can do the change myself if you
test the change on your side. But it would be a good practice to send
the patch you have tested. Up to you ;)

Thanks !

Yup, that's also happy work.

Feel free add my test tag if you remove the dsb().
