Oleg,

How is this relative to HZ, when you remove all references to HZ?

> -#define CALIBRATE_LATCH        (52 * LATCH)
> -#define CALIBRATE_TIME (52 * 1000020 / HZ)
> +#define CALIBRATE_LATCH        0xffff
[...]
> +       /* and the final result in HZ */
> +       return ((unsigned long)cc * CLOCK_TICK_RATE) / CALIBRATE_LATCH;

and in asm-alpha/timex.h,
> #define CLOCK_TICK_RATE 1193180 /* Underlying HZ */
