+Oxford Semiconductor OXNAS SoCs Family RPS Timer
+================================================
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should be "oxsemi,ox810se-rps-timer"
+- reg : Specifies base physical address and size of the registers.
+- interrupts : The interrupts of the two timers
+- clocks : The phandle of the timer clock source
+
+example:
+
+timer0: timer@200 {
+	compatible = "oxsemi,ox810se-rps-timer";
+	reg = <0x200 0x40>;
+	clocks = <&rpsclk>;
+	interrupts = <4 5>;
+};

 Required properties:
-- compatible: shall be "rockchip,rk3288-timer"
+- compatible: shall be one of:

 /*
- * per-CPU timer vector definitions:
+ * The timer wheel has LVL_DEPTH array levels. Each level provides an array of
+ * LVL_SIZE buckets. Each level is driven by its own clock and therefor each
+ * level has a different granularity.
+ *
+ * The level granularity is:		LVL_CLK_DIV ^ lvl
+ * The level clock frequency is:	HZ / (LVL_CLK_DIV ^ level)
+ *
+ * The array level of a newly armed timer depends on the relative expiry
+ * time. The farther the expiry time is away the higher the array level and
+ * therefor the granularity becomes.
+ *
+ * Contrary to the original timer wheel implementation, which aims for 'exact'
+ * expiry of the timers, this implementation removes the need for recascading
+ * the timers into the lower array levels. The previous 'classic' timer wheel
+ * implementation of the kernel already violated the 'exact' expiry by adding
+ * slack to the expiry time to provide batched expiration. The granularity
+ * levels provide implicit batching.
+ *
+ * This is an optimization of the original timer wheel implementation for the
+ * majority of the timer wheel use cases: timeouts. The vast majority of
+ * timeout timers (networking, disk I/O ...) are canceled before expiry. If
+ * the timeout expires it indicates that normal operation is disturbed, so it
+ * does not matter much whether the timeout comes with a slight delay.
+ *
+ * The only exception to this are networking timers with a small expiry
+ * time. They rely on the granularity. Those fit into the first wheel level,
+ * which has HZ granularity.
+ *
+ * We don't have cascading anymore. timers with a expiry time above the
+ * capacity of the last wheel level are force expired at the maximum timeout
+ * value of the last wheel level. From data sampling we know that the maximum
+ * value observed is 5 days (network connection tracking), so this should not
+ * be an issue.
+ *
+ * The currently chosen array constants values are a good compromise between
+ * array size and granularity.
+ *
+ * This results in the following granularity and range levels:
+ *
+ * HZ 1000 steps
+ * Level Offset  Granularity            Range
