Ah, I was incorrectly assuming that TWD was referring to the architected timers, sorry about that.
Maybe we should do this differently then and do the more logical
config LOCAL_TIMERS bool
config ARM_TWD bool "ARM TWD local timer" depends on SMP && CPU_V7 select LOCAL_TIMERS
config EXYNOS4_MCT bool "Samsung Exynos4 MCT Timer" depends on SMP && ARCH_EXYNOS select LOCAL_TIMERS
config MSM_LOCAL_TIMER bool "Qualcomm MSM Local Timer" depends on SMP && ARCH_MSM select LOCAL_TIMERS
That way we have no implicit assumptions. Everything will still work if you disable local timers, but of course we will enable them in the defconfigs.
