The fact that some private function was allowed (or rather not
objected durign the reviews) for s specific implementation does not
mean that it is a good idea to generalize this code for other boards
or architectures - if we do something like that, we should discuss it
first, and put it in context with the (Not yet complete) discussion
about the new Timer API.


I definitely do not want to see this function spread uncontrolled and
undiscussed.  If we find it's useful, it should be made really
general.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
