With the upcoming NTP correction related rate adjustments to be implemented in the clockevents core, the latter needs to get informed about every rate change of a clockevent device made after its registration. Currently, sh_cmt violates this requirement in that it registers its clockevent device with a dummy rate and sets its final ->mult and ->shift values from its ->set_state_oneshot() and ->set_state_periodic() functions respectively. This patch moves the setting of the clockevent device's ->mult and ->shift values to before its registration. Note that there has been some back and forth regarding this question with respect to the clocksource also provided by this driver: commit f4d7c356 ("clocksource: sh_cmt: compute mult and shift before registration") moves the rate determination from the clocksource's ->enable() function to before its registration. OTOH, the later commit 3593f5fe ("clocksource: sh_cmt: __clocksource_updatefreq_hz() update") basically reverts this, saying "Without this patch the old code uses clocksource_register() together with a hack that assumes a never changing clock rate." However, I checked all current sh_cmt users in arch/sh as well as in arch/arm/mach-shmobile carefully and right now, none of them changes any rate in any clock tree relevant to sh_cmt after their respective time_init(). Since all sh_cmt instances are created after time_init(), none of them should ever observe any clock rate changes. What's more, both, a clocksource as well as a clockevent device, can immediately get selected for use at their registration and thus, enabled at this point already. So it's probably safer to assume a "never changing clock rate" here. - Move the struct sh_cmt_channel's ->rate member to struct sh_cmt_device: it's a property of the underlying clock which is in turn specific to the sh_cmt_device. - Determine the ->rate value in sh_cmt_setup() at device probing rather than at first usage. - Set the clockevent device's ->mult and ->shift values right before its registration. - Although not strictly necessary for the upcoming clockevent core changes, set the clocksource's rate at its registration for consistency.
