[PATCH] i386: Fix bogus return value in hpet_next_event()

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Tue Mar 27 2007 - 03:08:53 EST


The clockevents / tick management code expects an error value, when the
event is already expired. hpet_next_event() returns 1 in that case.

Fix it to return the proper -ETIME error code.
