| H A D | apic.c | 747d04b3 Sun Mar 26 08:44:03 CDT 2017 Nicolai Stange <nicstange@gmail.com> x86/apic/timer: Set ->min_delta_ticks and ->max_delta_ticks
In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,
all clockevent device drivers must set ->min_delta_ticks and
->max_delta_ticks rather than ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns: a
clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.
Make the x86 arch's apic clockevent driver initialize these fields
properly.
This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the
clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns
and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will
purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this
driver.
