My recently posted patch set: [PATCH v2 00/05] ARM: shmobile: sh73a0 and kzm9g Multiplatform revisit > Magnus, you have told me that you've performed tests on Marzen with > CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE and with both TWD enabled and disabled.

What I can tell from yesterday is that legacy Marzen seemed busted and without my patch(es) (including this one) multiplatform Marzen was busted as well. I'll most likely be buried in paper work tomorrow, but I'll see if I can find time dealing with Marzen legacy tomorrow. In general I find legacy upkeep rather time consuming since it seems to degrade rather quickly, so I much rather spend time fixing up multiplatform. >> When the time allows I'd like us to try to fix up these somehow.

From my side I find the TWD and arch timer upkeep to be heavy enough as-is without considering the preempt case. But you're right - we should cover all of them.
