[ Upstream commit e348b4014c31041e13ff370669ba3348c4d385e3 ] timer_read() was using an empty 100-iteration loop to wait for the TMR_CVWR register to capture the latest timer counter value. The delay wasn't long enough. This resulted in CPU idle time being extremely underreported on PXA168 with CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE=y. Switch to the approach used in the vendor kernel, which implements the capture delay by reading TMR_CVWR a few times instead.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
