Hi.
I've made a patch, updating sparc64/sun4v timer driver to utilize new MI
event timer infrastructure. There are several benefits:
- unified interfaces and behavior with other platforms,
- support for timer in one-shot mode,
- more timer hardware can be easily supported (if there any).
Code works for me on UP sparc64 (SunBlade 100) and builds on sun4v.
Should work on SMP, but I can't test it.
Patch for HEAD can be found here:

Any comments?
