+/* It may seem odd that there is no SWCNT code in here (which would be exposed
+ * via the periodic interrupt event, or PIE).  Since the Blackfin RTC peripheral
+ * runs in units of seconds (N/HZ) but the Linux framework runs in units of HZ
+ * (2^N HZ), there is no point in keeping code that only provides 1 HZ PIEs.
+ * The same exact behavior can be accomplished by using the update interrupt
+ * event (UIE).  Maybe down the line the RTC peripheral will suck less in which
+ * case we can re-introduce PIE support.
