 	  When porting barebox to a new SoC there might be a case
 	  of broken or absent clocksource. This causes barebox serial
 	  console to be non functional.
-	  To solve the problem this software-only clocksource driver is used.
-	      WARNING!!! This clocksource doesn't provide correct timing.
-	  To adjust this clocksource please use CONFIG_CLOCKSOURCE_DUMMY_RATE.
+	  To solve the problem barebox has built-in software-only clocksource.
+	  The software-only clocksource is used only if no hardware clocksource
+	  is registered. This can help if initialization order is wrong so that
+	  the time functions are used before the real clocksource was initialized.
+	      WARNING!!! Built-in software-only clocksource doesn't provide correct timing.
+	  The option CONFIG_CLOCKSOURCE_DUMMY_RATE is used to adjust this clocksource.
 	  The bigger rate valuest makes clocksource "faster".
-	  It's possible to add this clocksource unconditionally.
-	  This clocksource starts very early (pure_initcall) so
-	  real clocksource will take over.
-	  This can help if initialization order is wrong so that
-	  the time functions are used before the real clocksource
-	  was initialized.
