Hi Rohit,

This is quite a departure from the current implementation, which raises a
couple of questions:
- What does CP15 ID_PFR1[19:16] report? Can we easily detect that we do
not have the CP15 interface?
- What about HYP mode? Is there any way to control the access of the
physical timer at PL1?

Ouch! How do you specify the various interrupts for all CPUs? Do you end
up with 4 SPIs per CPU?

I already have something similar in a patch series that I'd like to get
merged in 3.7, implementing support for the virtual timers (needed for
virtualisation). Have a look at:

So you end up enabling the interrupt earlier than expected. Are you sure
this is safe?
