    As noted for the Amiga CIA (which is pretty much a sibling to this
    MOS 6522 VIA) this chip also has two counters and could use one
    as clocksource and the other as clock event.

    Again I bet this is just using one timer out of habit.

    It will be an easy feat to make a clean clocksource+clock event
    for this hardware as well once this refactoring is complete.

    Yours,
    Linus Walleij
