In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,

clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.
Make the timer-atlas7 clockevent driver initialize these fields properly.

purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this

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, h8300_timer8 violates this requirement in that it registers its
clockevent device with the correct rate, but resets its ->mult and ->rate
values in timer8_clock_event_start(), called from its ->set_state_oneshot()
function.
It seems like
commit 4633f4cac8 ("clocksource/drivers/h8300: Cleanup startup and
remove module code."),
which introduced the rate initialization at registration, missed to remove
the manual setting of ->mult and ->shift from timer8_clock_event_start().

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, em_sti violates this requirement in that it registers its
clockevent device with a dummy rate and sets its final rate through
clockevents_config() called from its ->set_state_oneshot().
This patch moves the setting of the clockevent device's rate to its
registration.
I checked all current em_sti users in arch/arm/mach-shmobile and right now,
none of them changes any rate in any clock tree relevant to em_sti after
their respective time_init(). Since all em_sti instances are created after
time_init(), none of them should ever observe any clock rate changes.
- Determine the ->rate value in em_sti_probe() at device probing rather
than at first usage.
- Set the clockevent device's rate at its registration.
- Although not strictly necessary for the upcoming clockevent core changes,
set the clocksource's rate at its registration for consistency.

Currently, the em_sti driver prepares and enables the needed clock in
em_sti_enable(), potentially called through its clockevent device's
->set_state_oneshot().
However, the clk_prepare() step may sleep whereas tick_program_event() and
thus, ->set_state_oneshot(), can be called in atomic context.
Split the clk_prepare_enable() in em_sti_enable() into two steps:
- prepare the clock at device probing via clk_prepare()
- and enable it in em_sti_enable() via clk_enable().
Slightly reorder resource initialization in em_sti_probe() in order to
facilitate error handling in later patches.

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_tmu violates this requirement in that it registers its
clockevent device with a dummy rate and sets its final rate through
clockevents_config() called from its ->set_state_oneshot() and
->set_state_periodic() functions respectively.
This patch moves the setting of the clockevent device's rate to 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 66f49121ff ("clocksource: sh_tmu: compute mult and shift before
registration")
moves the rate determination from the clocksource's ->enable() function to
before its registration. OTOH, the later
commit 0aeac458d9 ("clocksource: sh_tmu: __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_tmu 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_tmu after their respective
time_init(). Since all sh_tmu 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_tmu_channel's ->rate member to struct sh_tmu_device:
it's a property of the underlying clock which is in turn specific to
the sh_tmu_device.
- Determine the ->rate value in sh_tmu_setup() at device probing rather
than at first usage.
- Set the clockevent device's rate at its registration.
- Although not strictly necessary for the upcoming clockevent core changes,
set the clocksource's rate at its registration for consistency.

Erratum Hisilicon-161010101 says that the ARM generic timer counter "has
the potential to contain an erroneous value when the timer value
changes". Accesses to TVAL (both read and write) are also affected due
to the implicit counter read. Accesses to CVAL are not affected.
The workaround is to reread the system count registers until the value
of the second read is larger than the first one by less than 32, the
system counter can be guaranteed not to return wrong value twice by
back-to-back read and the error value is always larger than the correct
one by 32. Writes to TVAL are replaced with an equivalent write to CVAL.

Currently we have code inline in the arch timer probe path to cater for
Freescale erratum A-008585, complete with ifdeffery. This is a little
ugly, and will get worse as we try to add more errata handling.
This patch refactors the handling of Freescale erratum A-008585. Now the
erratum is described in a generic arch_timer_erratum_workaround
structure, and the probe path can iterate over these to detect errata
and enable workarounds.
This will simplify the addition and maintenance of code handling
Hisilicon erratum 161010101.

the device tree way:
- Make every IO-access relative to a base address and dynamic
so we can do a dynamic ioremap and get going.
- Do not poke around directly in the global syscon registers,
access them using the syscon regmap style design pattern for
the one register we need to check.
- Find register range and interrupt from the device tree.

The current code uses the CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE macro to fill the clksrc
table with a t-uple (name, init_function).
Unfortunately it ends up to the clockevent and the clocksource being
both initialized with this macro. It is not a problem by itself but there
is not a clear distinction between a clockevent and a clocksource in the
code initialization path. Somebody can argue there are the same IP block
and the same DT node. But conceptually from the software side, there are
two distincts entities and as is they should be initialized separetely.
Some drivers which do not have a clocksource end up by using the
CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE macro to declare a clockevent.
Another result is the fuzzy organization in the clocksource directory,
where the clockevents are implemented in the same file than the
clocksources or file labelled timer-something implementing a clocksource.
This patch provides another macro to specifically declare a clockevent in
the same way than the clocksource and gives the opportunity to write two
separate drivers, one for the clocksource and another for the clockevents.
Hopefully, that can help to do some housework in the directory, perhaps
split the drivers in to entities, for example:
- clksrc-rockchip.c
- clkevt-rockchip.c
Also, it gives the possibility to declare clocksources separately in the
DT and then use a clocksource from IP block while while clockevents are
used from another IP block.
