+i.MX31 specific Configuration Options:
+--------------------------------------
+
+- Timer precision:
+ CONFIG_MX31_TIMER_HIGH_PRECISION
+
+ Enable higher precision timer. The low-precision timer
+ (default) provides approximately 4% error, whereas the
+ high-precision timer is about 0.4% accurate. The extra
+ accuracy is achieved at the cost of higher computational
+ overhead, which, in places where time is measured, should
+ not be critical, so, it should be safe to enable this
+ option.
