Subject: [PATCH -tip] x86: apic LVTT - use APIC_DIVISOR on 64bit mode
Date: Wed, 9 Jul 2008 23:02:37 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080709190237.GA21423@asus> (raw)

We use APIC_TDR_DIV_16 while setting APIC_TDCR (divisor)
it happened this moment is hidden from __setup_APIC_LVTT
caller. So we better increment caller 'clocks' value to
not change current behaviour and use APIC_DIVISOR
(as already done in 32bit version).

The main benefit - unified procedure code for 32/64bit modes.

Please review carefully. Any comments are welcome.
I'm _not_ 100% sure if this patch is safe.
