PPC440 interval timer off by factor of 10?

Hello,

I'm porting the OCOTEA u-boot package to a customer PPC440 board. In the process of debugging (non-CFI) Flash timeout functions, it appears that get_timer() is returning a value which increments every 10msec instead of 1 msec:

Further code examinations shows that interrupt_init_cpu() is indeed setting up a 10msec interval.

#if defined(CONFIG_440)
	val = mfspr( tcr );
	...
	val = gd->bd->bi_intfreq/100;	/* 10 msec */
         ...

Is this a real BUG? I can fix the flash related function which use the timer but what about all the other modules which use get_timer() - some are network related.

Thank you.

...

Looks like a bug to me.

Make it right before you make it faster.

Ok, I will investigate if the fix has any bad side affects.

If no problems show up, I'll post a patch.
