[Qemu-devel] system_clock_scale unset in hw/intc/armv7m_nvic.c

[James Hanley]

How should system_clock_scale be set in hw/intc/armv7m_nvic.c - there is no
API for the global, and I've defaulted the global to SYSTICK_SCALE which
seems to work, but is not obvious.  This was needed as this value was set
to zero and the arm firmware was selecting the external clock source
causing zero to be returned from systick_scale() and the interrupt to run
continuously.
