[RFC][PATCH] v850 generic timekeeping conversion

From: john stultz
Date: Mon Feb 26 2007 - 20:41:57 EST


This is similar to the h8/300 patch I just sent out, in that it converts
a arch that does not currently implement sub-jiffy timekeeping to use
the generic timekeeping code.

v850 however looks like it has some intent to implement sub-jiffy
timekeeping, so it may not yet be appropriate to try to convert, but I
figured I'd get the maintainer's input and submit the patch for comment.

And again, I do not have hardware, so this is completely untested.

thanks
