Why delta "minus one" ?

You can call pit_set_next_event(cycle_per_jiffy, evt) instead of adding
redundant code, no ?

Did you take into account Thomas's comment ?

The irq initialization is missing.

clockevent_pit.irq = irq;

Is it possible to have a comment with the justification for these values ?

Everything is ok if you can't setup your timer ?

You raise a bug and then you go ahead setting up the address with an
invalid value, leading to a random crash.

Same here.

Please, remove these BUG_ON, this is inconsistent especially with a one
call init function. If pit_timer_init can't be initialized, just pr_err
+ BUG.
