[PULL] : clockevents/clocksource fixes for 4.8

From: Daniel Lezcano
Date: Wed Aug 17 2016 - 06:17:51 EST




Hi Ingo,

this pull request for tip/timers/urgent contains two critical fixes and
one spurious compiler warning.

- Change the get_counter error handling function in order to prevent a
warning generated by gcc for the kona driver (Arnd Bergman)

- Fix a wrong clock reference leading to a kernel hang and slow bootup.
The init function conversion introduced a regression by taking the wrong
clock on armada-370-xp (Gregory Clement)

- Fix the init function prototype to return int on the mips-gic-driver
(Paul Gortmaker)

Thanks !
