clocksource/drivers/timer-sun4i: Add CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Add CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ to allow the IRQ could be runtime set affinity
to the cores that needs wake up, otherwise saying core0 has to send
IPI to wakeup core1. With CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ set, when broadcast
timer could wake up the cores, IPI is not needed.

After enabling this feature, especially the scene where cpuidle is
enabled can benefit.
