[PATCH 2/4] arch, x86, tsc deadline clockevent dev: reduce TSC_DIVISOR to 2

2016-07-10 Thread Nicolai Stange
In order to avoid overflowing an u32, the TSC deadline clockevent device's frequency is divided by TSC_DIVISOR at registration. The TSC_DIVISOR is currently defined as equaling 32 which allows for a TSC frequency as high as 2^32 / 10^9ns * 32 = 137 GHz. OTOH, larger values of TSC_DIVISOR
