With the upcoming NTP correction related rate adjustments to be implemented
in the clockevents core, the latter needs to get informed about every rate
change of a clockevent device made after its registration.
Currently, h8300_timer8 violates this requirement in that it registers its
clockevent device with the correct rate, but resets its ->mult and ->rate
values in timer8_clock_event_start(), called from its ->set_state_oneshot()
function.
It seems like
commit 4633f4cac8 ("clocksource/drivers/h8300: Cleanup startup and
remove module code."),
which introduced the rate initialization at registration, missed to remove
the manual setting of ->mult and ->shift from timer8_clock_event_start().
Purge the setting of ->mult, ->shift, ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns
from timer8_clock_event_start().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
