please move rtc driver into clock directory #9

Title means almost everything,

I added a sleep.h to include/, they should be provided by some driver, but the signatures should be just the same.

Good point.

However I think sleep() functions should probably be renamed to delay() since sleep() is more-or-less a system call, and delay() hints for some kind of busy-wait which fits our requirements.

maybe spin_sleep() can indicate that better.

BarclayII commented 9 years ago

spin_sleep, delay and busy_wait are all good candidates, feel free to choose one or invent your own

it'll be spin_sleep then. ARM's other SDKs say sleep so choosing another name might be misleading.
