Commit Message

Colton Lewis Aug. 23, 2024, 5:58 p.m. UTC
Add a new arch_timer_edge_cases selftests that validates:

* timers above the max TVAL value
* timers in the past
* moving counters ahead and behind pending timers
* reprograming timers
* timers fired multiple times
* masking/unmasking using the timer control mask

These are intentionally unusual scenarios to stress compliance with
the arm architecture.
