Linux kernel modifications for the Kernel Hacking exam
5d9814df0a
commit ("b0fc70ce1f02 arm64: berlin: Select DW_APB_TIMER_OF") added the
support for the dw_apb_timer into the arm64 defconfig. However, for some
platforms like the Intel Stratix10 and Agilex, the clock manager doesn't
get loaded until after the timer driver get loaded. Thus, the driver hits
the panic "No clock nor clock-frequency property for" because it cannot
properly get the clock.
This patch adds the error handling needed for the timer driver so that
the kernel can continue booting instead of just hitting the panic.

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.
