[PATCH v3 7/7] ARM: at91: drop AT91_TIMER_HZ

From: Alexandre Belloni
Date: Fri Mar 13 2015 - 17:58:34 EST


Drop AT91_TIMER_HZ as this can be handled using HZ_FIXED. Initial help message
was:

On AT91rm9200 chips where you're using a system clock derived
from the 32768 Hz hardware clock, this tick rate should divide
it exactly: use a power-of-two value, such as 128 or 256, to
reduce timing errors caused by rounding.

- On AT91sam926x chips, or otherwise when using a higher precision
- system clock (of at least several MHz), rounding is less of a
- problem so it can be safer to use a decimal values like 100.
