X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f7db706b132f11c79ae1d74b2382e0926cf31644;p=linux-beck.git ARM: 7674/1: smp: Avoid dummy clockevent being preferred over real hardware clock-event With recent arm broadcast time clean-up from Mark Rutland, the dummy broadcast device is always registered with timer subsystem. And since the rating of the dummy clock event is very high, it may be preferred over a real clock event. This is a change in behavior from past and not an intended one. So reduce the rating of the dummy clock-event so that real clock-event device is selected when available.
