Do you want me to touch clock_event_mode as well? Otherwise we will pass mode into a function setting state..
Or we can do s/mode/state after all the work suggested by you is done ..
Or leave as is..
1 & 2, should be just 1-2 patches, I will try to send them as soon as possible. Once these get your nod, will start working on fixing all the clockevent drivers.
