the code has been tested for internal RAM now.
We have more cleanups in the mind but headers are critical
for now. Premek is working on that, time for feedback
form previous e-mail passed without input so he plans
to send prepared changes as patch intended for inclusion/final
review today.

As for time resolution, we have made initial assumption
that 1usec is reasonable and has advantage, that it can be
maintained constant even if there are different PLL setups
between boards. Other option is to set resolution exactly
to PLL clock but at least I do not see big added value in that.

Best wishes,
