[PATCH] arm64: arch_timer: Fix the lack of set_next_event* for workaround of Cortex-A73 erratum 858921

[Kunkun Jiang]

The patch a38b71b0833e moves the programming of the timers from
the countdown timer (TVAL) over to the comparator (CVAL). This
makes it necessary to read the counter when setting next event.
However, the workaround of Cortex-A73 erratum 858921 does not
set the corresponding set_next_event_phys and set_next_event_virt.
This patch fixes it.

Fixes: a38b71b0833e ("clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Move system register timer programming over to CVAL")

Please check your patch with scripts/checkpatch.pl next time.
Use this pattern when referring to a commit in the changelog:

commit a38b71b0833e ("clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Move
system register timer programming over to CVAL") moved the
programming...

Avoid referring to 'this patch', and just state imperatively what the
change does, perhaps:

Add the appropriate hooks to apply the erratum mitigation when
programming the next timer event.

Thanks for catching this!

With the fixed commit message as suggested by Oliver, and a subject
more conform to the style of previous commits (something like:
"clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Fix handling of ARM erratum 85821"):

Acked-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>

Daniel, I assume you'll pick this?

Thanks,
