Hi Leela,

See my comments inline.

I think that the approach with timing_base, as suggested by Joonyoung Shim, 
would be much cleaner.

Leela: Okay, will go with timing_base approach only

If I see correctly, this will crash on a null pointer dereference on 
Exynos4 without DT, because of NULL driver_data.

Leela: yes, you are right, will take care of this

P.S. I think you should CC linux-arm-kernel and linux-samsung-soc lists 
when submitting patches related to ARM and Samsung SoCs.

Leela: Okay, will do it next time.
