77cc982f6a clocksource: use clockevents_config_and_register() where possible
The clockevent core is able to figure out the best mult and shift,
calculate min_delta_ns and max_delta_ns, with the necessary info passed
into clockevents_config_and_register().  Use this combined configure
and register function where possible to make the codes less error prone
and gain some positive diff stat.

c0a2392333 cs5535-clockevt: Allow the MFGPT IRQ to be shared
Shared timer IRQs are not a good solution, however the Geode platform has
no APIC, IRQs are a scarce resource and there is no technical reason to
forbid it rightaway.  Increased latencies and overhead due to sharing are
still better than a driver refusing to load.

fc579da75f cs5535-clockevt: Don't ignore MFGPT on SMP-capable kernels
On SMP-capable kernels (e.g.  generic distro kernel) the cs5535-clockevt
driver loads but is not actually used.

Setting cpumask to cpu_all_mask works for UP-only kernels, but if compiled
for SMP - though still running on the same UP hardware -
kernel/time/tick-common.c:tick_check_new_device() reads this as
"non-cpu-local" and silently ignores the device.

If we leave cpumask unset clockevents_register_device() will initialize it
and the cs5535-clockevt driver will be used no matter how the kernel was
compiled.  Should anyone ever manage to stick a CS553x in an SMP system
(is this even possible?) then a warning will be printed.  This is fine as
the cs5535-clockevt driver was never written/tested for SMP.

If bisecting led you here this patch may have exposed a pre-existing MFGPT
problem.  Configure for UP-only and re-check.

fdb19a6cb4 cs5535-clockevt: Free timer in IRQ setup error path
Due to a hardware limitation cs5535_mfgpt_free_timer() cannot actually
release the timer hardware, but it will at least free the now unreferenced
struct associated with it so calling it is the cleaner thing to do.

115079aad9 geode-mfgpt: restore previous behavior for selecting IRQ
geode-mfgpt: restore previous behavior for selecting IRQ

The MFGPT IRQ used to be, in order of decreasing priority,
 * IRQ supplied by the user as a boot-time parameter,
 * IRQ previously set by the BIOS or another driver,
 * default IRQ given at compile time.

Return to this behavior, which got broken when splitting the
MFGPT/clocksource driver for 2.6.33-rc1.

c30d7d2b99 cs5535: add a generic clock event MFGPT driver
This is based on the old code in arch/x86/kernel/mfgpt_32.c, but is
modular and not Geode-specific.  There's no reason why the clock event
device needs to be registered so early at boot; the clockevent code is
perfectly capable of dynamic switching.
