For time being, you can ignore about ARM64. let's have a discussion on ARMv7 first. I have enabled generic arch arm timer in kernel 3.10 frame work to validate vDSO (ARM: vDSO -> still, it did not merge in the vanilla kernel) on ARMv7. As part of this, i have noticed that the contex lost is happening. After pulling the patch, the issue is resolved, timer/counter is up and running. In future, someone wants to enable arch timer in 3.10, then I anticipate that the patch needs to be merged in vanilla kernel. correct me if I am wrong.
BR, Venkappa
