Looks like the thing is working. A concern though: the hardware timer
used on AT91 wraps fast, so if we want the tsc to work correctly, the
timer needs to tick every 20ms (which makes using the clock events
framework pretty useless, but it is mostly useful for other reasons: it
allows me to test Xenomai on ARM in the clock events case). I have set
the clock event max_delta_ns member to these 20ms, however when
inserting the nucleus module, the max_delta_ns member is set to
ULONG_MAX, so my question is: will the nucleus take care of ticking
every 20ms ?
