[PULL] : clockevents/clocksource fixes for 4.8

[PULL] : clockevents/clocksource fixes for 4.8

[Daniel Lezcano]

Hi Ingo,

this pull request for tip/timers/urgent contains two critical fixes and
one spurious compiler warning.

 - Change the get_counter error handling function in order to prevent a
warning generated by gcc for the kona driver (Arnd Bergman)

 - Fix a wrong clock reference leading to a kernel hang and slow bootup.
The init function conversion introduced a regression by taking the wrong
clock on armada-370-xp (Gregory Clement)

 - Fix the init function prototype to return int on the mips-gic-driver
(Paul Gortmaker)

Thanks !

[PATCH 1/3] clocksource/drivers/time-armada-370-xp: Fix the clock reference

[Daniel Lezcano]

From: Gregory CLEMENT <gregory.clement@free-electrons.com>

While converting the init function to return an error, the wrong clock
was get. This lead to wrong clock rate and slow down the kernel. For
example, before the patch a typical boot was around 15s after it was 1
minute slower.

[PATCH 2/3] clocksource/drivers/kona: Fix get_counter error handling

[Daniel Lezcano]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

I could not figure out why, but gcc cannot prove that the
kona_timer_init function always initializes its two outputs,
and we get a warning for the use of the 'lsw' variable later,
which is obviously correct.

drivers/clocksource/bcm_kona_timer.c: In function 'kona_timer_init':
drivers/clocksource/bcm_kona_timer.c:119:13: error: 'lsw' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

Slightly reordering the loop makes the warning disappear, after
it becomes more obvious to the compiler that the loop is
always entered on the first iteration.

As pointed out by Ray Jui, there is a related problem in the
way we deal with the loop running into the limit, as we just
keep going there with an invalid counter data, so instead we
now propagate a -ETIMEDOUT result to the caller.

[PATCH 3/3] clocksource/drivers/mips-gic-timer: Make gic_clocksource_of_init return int

[Daniel Lezcano]

From: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

In commit d8152bf85d2c057fc39c3e20a4d623f524d9f09c:
  ("clocksource/drivers/mips-gic-timer: Convert init function to return error")

several return values were added to a void function resulting in:

 clocksource/mips-gic-timer.c: In function 'gic_clocksource_of_init':
 clocksource/mips-gic-timer.c:175:3: warning: 'return' with a value, in function returning void [enabled by default]

 clocksource/mips-gic-timer.c:183:18: warning: ignoring return value of 'PTR_ERR', declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]

Given that the addition of the return values was intentional, it seems
that the conversion of the containing function from void to int was
simply overlooked.

clocksource/drivers/time-armada-370-xp: Fix the clock reference

While converting the init function to return an error, the wrong clock
was get. This leads to the wrong clock rate and slows down the kernel.
For example, it affects typical boot time:

 - without fix: over 1 minute
 - with    fix: 15 seconds
