I have been working on s3c6410 SOC. As per kconfig file, currently for
2.6.36, my platform doesn't support these dependencies. I have to
check with recent kernels.
"config HIGH_RES_TIMERS
bool "High Resolution Timer Support"
depends on !ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET && GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS
select TICK_ONESHOT
help
This option enables high resolution timer support. If your
hardware is not capable then this option only increases
the size of the kernel image."
