[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] Fix Linux task preemption on Versatile board

[Daniel Jacobowitz]

Recent versions of the Linux kernel will not preempt CPU-intensive
tasks unless the clock used by sched_clock() works.  On -M versatilepb
that's the 24MHz timer in the system controller.  It's a very simple
timer, so implement it.
