The CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE macro is used widely for the timers to declare the
clocksource at early stage. However, this macro is also used to initialize
the clockevent if any, or the clockevent only.
It was originally suggested to declare another macro to initialize a
clockevent, so in order to separate the two entities even they belong to the
same IP. This was not accepted because of the impact on the DT where splitting
a clocksource/clockevent definition does not make sense as it is a Linux
concept not a hardware description.
On the other side, the clocksource has not interrupt declared while the
clockevent has, so it is easy from the driver to know if the description is
for a clockevent or a clocksource, IOW it could be implemented at the driver
level.
So instead of dealing with a named clocksource macro, let's use a more generic
one: TIMER_OF_DECLARE.
The patch has not functional changes.

All the clocksource drivers's init function are now converted to return
an error code. CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE is no longer used as well as the
clksrc-of table.
Let's convert back the names:
- CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE_RET => CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE
- clksrc-of-ret => clksrc-of

The init functions do not return any error. They behave as the following:
- panic, thus leading to a kernel crash while another timer may work and
make the system boot up correctly
or
- print an error and let the caller unaware if the state of the system
Change that by converting the init functions to return an error conforming
to the CLOCKSOURCE_OF_RET prototype.
Proper error handling (rollback, errno value) will be changed later case
by case, thus this change just return back an error or success in the init
function.

http://git.linaro.org/people/daniel.lezcano/linux into timers/urgent
Pull in fixes from Daniel Lezcano:
- Fix the vt8500 timer leading to a system lock up when dealing with too
small delta (Roman Volkov)
- Select the CLKSRC_MMIO when the fsl_ftm_timer is enabled with COMPILE_TEST
(Daniel Lezcano)
- Prevent to compile timers using the 'iomem' API when the architecture has
not HAS_IOMEM set (Richard Weinberger)

The vt8500 clocksource driver declares itself as capable to handle the
minimum delay of 4 cycles by passing the value into
clockevents_config_and_register(). The vt8500_timer_set_next_event()
requires the passed cycles value to be at least 16. The impact is that
userspace hangs in nanosleep() calls with small delay intervals.
This problem is reproducible in Linux 4.2 starting from:
c6eb3f70d448 ('hrtimer: Get rid of hrtimer softirq')
From Russell King, more detailed explanation:
"It's a speciality of the StrongARM/PXA hardware. It takes a certain
number of OSCR cycles for the value written to hit the compare registers.
So, if a very small delta is written (eg, the compare register is written
with a value of OSCR + 1), the OSCR will have incremented past this value
before it hits the underlying hardware. The result is, that you end up
waiting a very long time for the OSCR to wrap before the event fires.
So, we introduce a check in set_next_event() to detect this and return
-ETIME if the calculated delta is too small, which causes the generic
clockevents code to retry after adding the min_delta specified in
clockevents_config_and_register() to the current time value.
min_delta must be sufficient that we don't re-trip the -ETIME check - if
we do, we will return -ETIME, forward the next event time, try to set it,
return -ETIME again, and basically lock the system up. So, min_delta
must be larger than the check inside set_next_event(). A factor of two
was chosen to ensure that this situation would never occur.
The PXA code worked on PXA systems for years, and I'd suggest no one
changes this mechanism without access to a wide range of PXA systems,
otherwise they're risking breakage."

Migrate vt8500 driver to the new 'set-state' interface provided by
clockevents core, the earlier 'set-mode' interface is marked obsolete
now.
This also enables us to implement callbacks for new states of clockevent
devices, for example: ONESHOT_STOPPED.

Instead of letting each driver call of_node_put do it centrally in the
loop that also calls the CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE callbacks. This is less
prone to error and also moves getting and putting the references into the
same function.
Consequently all respective of_node_put calls in drivers are removed.

This ensures that a function pointer passed into CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE
takes the same arguments that we use for calling that function later.

In cases where we have multiple nodes of the same type, we may need the
node pointer to know which node was matched. Passing the node pointer
also keeps the init function from having to match the node a 2nd time.
Update bcm2835, vt8500, and tegra20 init functions for the new function
prototype. Further tegra20 clean-ups are in follow-up commit.
