This one should be fallthrough case during exchange (mode == PERIODIC)

Oh, I was looking at this (x86_64 work I have here):

        case CLOCK_EVT_MODE_SHUTDOWN:
        case CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED:
                outb_p(0x30, PIT_MODE);
                outb_p(0, PIT_CH0);     /* LSB */
                outb_p(0, PIT_CH0);     /* MSB */
                break;

That's mode 0, not mode 5, but I think the end result is the same.
