Prepare linux-5.4.y to backport upstream timer wrap errata commit 3efe7a878a11c13b5297057bfc1e5639ce1241ce and commit 25de4ce5ed02994aea8bc111d133308f6fd62566. Earlier kernels still use mach-omap2/timer instead of drivers/clocksource as these kernels still depend on legacy platform code for timers. Note that earlier stable kernels need also additional patches and will be posted separately.

I do not understand this paragraph.

What upstream commit is this? And "posted separately" shouldn't show up in a changelog text, right?

Can you fix this up to make this obvious what is happening here and make a patch series that I can take without editing changelog text?

thanks,
