Subject: [PATCH 04/10] clocksource: Add max_cycles to clocksource structure
Date: Fri,  9 Jan 2015 16:34:22 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1420850068-27828-5-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1420850068-27828-1-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org>

In order to facilitate some clocksource validation,
add a max_cycles entry to the structure which will
hold the maximum cycle value that can safely be
multiplied without potentially causing an overflow.
