Yes and no. I suspect it may have something to do with the compiler options.
The code compiles with the following patch applied.

---
diff --git a/arch/openrisc/include/asm/spr.h b/arch/openrisc/include/asm/spr.h

get_cycles is implemented as static inline which executes mfspr(SPR_TTCR).
SPR_TTCR is a constant. Normally that information seems to be passed on,
but not when get_cycles() is compiled through jitterentropy.

Any idea what might cause this ?

Thanks,
Guenter
