The default timer rate may be different than 25 MHz, permit overriding
the default rate in board configuration file. Ultimatelly, this should
be properly handled by a clock driver, however that is not available
on Gen5 yet.

Sigh, yes, I still haven't found the time to fight those size problems I
have... :-(

Just above this line, there's this comment: "This timer uses eosc1,
whose clock frequency is fixed at any condition".

While I'm ok with the change below, it does look a bit funny to make
this overriable if it's "fixed at any condition". Could you elaborate on
this? Do we need to change the comment?

Regards,
Simon

The comment is probably wrong, since you can connect the SoCFPGA
external oscillator input to any applicable xtal ?

Right. Could you delete that comment then with this patch to
prevent confusion?
