It's documented in the OMAP5910 Timer Reference Guide (SPRU682A) Section 3 
"32-kHz Timer", at the link Jon mentioned.  Have not checked the errata 
that Jon mentioned though.

Regarding the patch: I'd suggest keeping the compilation warning fixes 
(which was the original purpose of the patch) from anything that changes 
the logic too much.   That way if there's an error in the patch that 
changes the logic and it needs to be reverted, it won't also revert the 
warning fixes.
