Subject: [PATCH 61/69] clockevents/drivers/arm_global_timer: Use writel_relaxed in gt_compare_set
From: Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@...vell.com>
Use the relaxed version to improve performance. we measured time of
4096 rounds of gt_compare_set() spent on Marvell BG2Q:
before the patch: 3690648ns on average
after the patch: 1083023ns on average
improved by 70%!
