[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] MIPS time.c fix

Thanks for your feedback; I wasn't aware of this. I've encountered a couple
of /2 constructions in some configurations, but I though that was just a
quick fix that degrades the granularity of the timer by half in order to
prevent overflows in net.c.

I have changed it to CFG_CP0_COUNT_RATE, if you don't mind. The IncaIP and
Purple platform seem to have cores with half-speed COUNT registers so those
have been fixed too. Behold the new patch ;-)
