We add DT bindings for a separate RISC-V timer DT node which can
be used to describe implementation specific behaviour (such as
timer interrupt not triggered during non-retentive suspend).

Hey Anup,

For the future, could you please CC me on all patches in a series that I
have previously reviewed?

I'm really not sure about this... I would be inclined to think that if
someone does not specify then we should assume that they took the
scroogiest view of the spec and so do not get events during suspend.

I suppose you could then argue that their DT is wrong & it's their fault
though. Plus the existing platforms behave this way & we avoid having to
retrofit stuff here.

Yes, the DT property is defined to keep things working for
existing platforms.

IMO, people should always read the DT bindings document at time of
creating DT for their platform. If there are queries then they can always
shoot email to the maintainers on LKML.

Aye, I suppose so. For every platform that may exist that this change
hurts, there's likely another one that it fixes a timer for... /shrug

Binding itself looks grand though & we are in lessor of two evils
territory, so:
