Subject: [PATCH] clocksource: add enable() and disable() callbacks
Date: Thu, 11 Dec 2008 20:49:09 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081211114909.17624.85712.sendpatchset@rx1.opensource.se> (raw)

From: Magnus Damm <damm@igel.co.jp>

Add enable() and disable() callbacks for clocksources. This allows
us to put unused clocksources in power save mode. The functions
clocksource_enable() and clocksource_disable() wrap the callbacks
and are inserted in the timekeeping code to enable before use and
disable after switching to a new clocksource.

 Same as before, but applies on top of the new read() patch.
