The currently used method adjusting the clocksource to a changing input
frequency does not work on kernels from 3.11 on.
The new approach is to keep the timer frequency as constant as possible.
I.e.
  - due to the TTC's prescaler limitations, allow frequency changes
    only if the frequency scales by a power of 2
  - adjust the counter's divider on the fly when a frequency change
    occurs

When suspending though, the driver should not prevent rate changes in
order to allow the system to enter its low power state. For that
reason a PM notifier is added so rate changes can be ignored during
suspend/resume.

It sounds very weird you have to add a PM notifier in this driver.

Have you been facing an issue or do you assume it could happen ?

This limits cpufreq to scale by certain factors only.
But we may keep the time base somewhat constant, so that sleep() & co
keep working as expected, while supporting cpufreq and suspend.

I don't see how it couldn't be racy. What prevents suspend to occur right after this check ?
