From 3a2c16c8489d967de10b3b7f5cc0f7cab4337770 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2015 18:44:03 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] x86/asm/tsc, staging/lirc_serial: Remove TSC-based timing It wasn't compiled in by default. I suspect that the driver was and still is broken, though -- it's calling udelay with a parameter that's derived from loops_per_jiffy.
