When using input clocks with high rates, such as clk81 (166MHz), the
fin_ns = NSEC_PER_SEC / fin_freq can introduce a significant error.
Ex: fin_freq = 166666667, NSEC_PER_SEC = 1000000000
fin_ns = 5,9999999
which is, of course, rounded down to 5. This introduces an error of ~20%
on the period requested from the PWM.
This patch uses ps instead of ns (and 64 bit integers) to perform the
calculation. This should give a good enough precision.

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.
