[ Upstream commit 22627c6f3ed3d9d0df13eec3c831b08f8186c38e ] When trying to use CMT for clockevents on R-Car gen3 SoCs, I noticed that 'max_delta_ns' for the broadcast timer (CMT) was shown as 1000 in /proc/timer_list. It turned out that when calculating it, the driver did 1 << 32 (causing what I think was undefined behavior) resulting in a zero delta, later clamped to 1000 by cev_delta2ns(). The root cause turned out to be that the driver abused *unsigned long* for the CMT register values (which are 16/32-bit), so that the calculation of 'ch->max_match_value' in sh_cmt_setup_channel() used the wrong branch. Using more proper 'u32' instead fixed 'max_delta_ns' and even fixed the switching an active clocksource to CMT (which caused the system to turn non-interactive before).

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.
