Due to the fact that the use of `writeq_relaxed()` to program CVAL is not guaranteed to be atomic, it is necessary to disable the timer before programming CVAL. However, if the MMIO timer is already enabled and has not yet expired, there is a possibility of unexpected behavior occurring: when the CPU enters the idle state during this period, and if the CPU's local event is earlier than the broadcast event, the following process occurs: tick_broadcast_enter() tick_broadcast_oneshot_control(TICK_BROADCAST_ENTER) __tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() ___tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() tick_broadcast_set_event() clockevents_program_event() set_next_event_mem() During this process, the MMIO timer remains enabled while programming CVAL. To prevent such behavior, disable timer explicitly prior to programming CVAL.
