The idea here was to avoid having to "manually" program the HW if there's a new earliest alarm. This was lazy and bad, as it leads to loads of fun races between inter-related callers (ie. therm). Turns out, it's not so difficult after all. Go figure ;) Signed-off-by: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
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.
