I'll comment on the sysfs interface in the respective docs patch. Some
comments regarding this patch below.

I doubt there's any practical reason for a user to set the timer period
to 0, but perhaps we should not try to protect users from themselves
here. It's very obvious and expected that setting the timer period to 0
results in timeouts as quickly as possible, so really the user should be
left to reap the fruits of their decision regardless of how asinine that
decision is.

Same comment here as the previous patches about clearing all interrupt
flags.

If the values for these new attributes are expected to be denominated in
nanoseconds then we must guarantee that. You should certainly error out
here if you can't guarantee such.

Alternatively, you could provide an additional set of attributes that
are denominated in units of raw timer ticks rather than nanoseconds.
That way if you can't determine the clock rate you can simply have the
nanosecond-denominated timer attributes return an EOPNOTSUPP error code
or similar while still providing users with the raw timer ticks
attributes.
