[patch 34/46] tick-management: core functionality

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Tue Jan 23 2007 - 17:08:48 EST


From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxx>

The tick-management code is the first user of the clockevents layer.
It takes clock event devices from the clock events core and uses them
to provide the periodic tick.
