Subject: powerpc: Don't do generic calibrate_delay()
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.31-rc1~110^2~69
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=177996e6e20f15004d6757d9b859f57d181ef443;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-3.10.git

powerpc: Don't do generic calibrate_delay()

Currently we are wasting time calling the generic calibrate_delay()
function. We don't need it since our implementation of __delay() is
based on the CPU timebase. So instead, we use our own small
implementation that initializes loops_per_jiffy to something sensible
to make the few users like spinlock debug be happy
