On am437x we use also an ARM timer in addition to the dmtimer. As am437x
is not an SMP SoC, we need tick_broadcast() implemented. With the recent
dmtimer changes, Arnd started to see link failures for non-SMP am437x
configuration:
kernel/time/tick-broadcast.o: in function `tick_device_uses_broadcast':
tick-broadcast.c:(.text+0x130): undefined reference to `tick_broadcast'
Let's fix the issue by reverting dmtimer related changes that started
building timer.c only for CONFIG_SOC_HAS_REALTIME_COUNTER. We still
always need timer.c built-in for omap5 and dra7 for timer_probe().
And let's also move am437x tick_broadcast() to board-generic.c as
that's where we now call timer_probe() for am437x. This way we avoid
adding back more ifdefs to timer.c.
Fixes: 2ee04b8854 ("ARM: OMAP2+: Drop old timer code for dmtimer and 32k counter")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
