With the "real HZ" debate out of the way, let's actually use the apm821xx's default upstream config file at arch/powerpc/configs/44x/bluestone_defconfig. From what I can tell, it sets NO_HZ (well, this platform was for NAS, so this is a bit unexpected) and remove any specific HZ_$VALUE symbol. Sadly, Daniel Engberg didn't run any before/after netperf tests, because it would have been such a slam dunk across the boards. In case of the apm821xx the tcp tx/rx performance improved ~14% (from 600Mbps to 700Mps). This now causes the emac to drop frames too, so let's see if this is causes more problems or not. This patch includes a refresh of the configuration too. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@gmail.com>

This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.
To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case
sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack
of a case sensitive file system.
You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python3.5+, perl, make, find, grep, diff,
unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed.
1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default
2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained
packages into package/feeds/
3. Run "make menuconfig" to select your preferred configuration for the
toolchain, target system & firmware packages.
4. Run "make" to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build
the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the Linux kernel & all
chosen applications for your target system.
Sunshine!
