clockevents: Shutdown detached clockevent device

vireshk · KAGA-KOKO · commit 149aabcc44e3 · 2015-04-24T21:01:48.000+02:00
A clockevent device is marked DETACHED when it is replaced by another clockevent device. The device is shutdown properly for drivers that implement legacy ->set_mode() callback, as we call ->set_mode() for CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED as well. But for the new per-state callback interface, we skip shutting down the device, as we thought its an internal state change. That wasn't correct. The effect is that the device is left programmed in oneshot or periodic mode. Fall-back to 'case CLOCK_EVT_STATE_SHUTDOWN', to shutdown the device.
