clockevents: Provide interface to reconfigure an active clock event device

KAGA-KOKO · KAGA-KOKO · commit 80b816b736cf · 2011-05-19T14:24:16.000+02:00
Some ARM SoCs have clock event devices which have their frequency modified due to frequency scaling. Provide an interface which allows to reconfigure an active device. After reconfiguration reprogram the current pending event.
