Thanks. The downside of my RFC Patch is, that min_delta_ns is increased
from 30518 to 61035:
good: setup_clkevents: shift=32 mult=140737 min=30518 max=1999976422
bad: setup_clkevents: shift=32 mult=140737 min=30517 max=1999976422
RFC: setup_clkevents: shift=32 mult=140737 min=61035 max=1999976422
To keep the original min_delta_ns value of 30518, a rather hackish
option would be this:
diff --git a/drivers/clocksource/tcb_clksrc.c b/drivers/clocksource/tcb_clksrc.c
index 8a61872..30e0a68 100644

+ clkevt.clkevt.min_delta_ns = clockevent_delta2ns(1, &clkevt.clkevt) + 1;
setup_irq(irq, &tc_irqaction);
}
