benchtests: Rename argument to TIMING_INIT macro.
The TIMING_INIT macro currently sets the number of loop iterations
to 1000, which limits usefulness. Make the argument a clock
resolution value and multiply by 1000 in bench-skeleton.c instead
to allow easier reuse.
ChangeLog:
2013-09-11 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org>
* benchtests/bench-timing.h (TIMING_INIT): Rename ITERS
parameter to RES. Remove hardcoded 1000 value.
* benchtests/bench-skeleton.c (main): Pass RES parameter
to TIMING_INIT and multiply result by 1000.
