Actually, I want to implement this function on PowerPC, but I think
PowerPC doesn't provide registers for configuring timer interrupt.

The board which I use is GE Faunc VG5, and its mircoprocessor is
PowerPC MPC7455.
I read MPC7455 Manual, but I cannot find the register related to timer
interrupt. There is only timer count clock register. (TBU and TBL)

The decrementer register is called DEC.

according to the docs, you can load it with mtspr 22
