Subject: [RFC 0/2] clockevents: add ->set_dev_mode() to struct clock_event_device

Hi Thomas,

As suggested by you (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/10/86), here is an attempt to
implement first two steps for fixing the bigger problem.

This patchset is about adding ->set_dev_mode() to struct clock_event_device with
return type 'int'. To achieve that return type of clockevents_set_mode() is also
changed to propagate failures.

Let me know if this is what you wanted to see or I screwed up again :(

I will then start updating drivers one by one (100 drivers AFAICT). I will try to
fix them in separate patches and will post them together in a single patchset.
And because the number is going to be over 100, let me know how do you want me
to send that..

Viresh Kumar (2):
  clockevents: return 'int' from clockevents_set_mode()
  clockevents: add ->set_dev_mode() to struct clock_event_device
