Thanks for your patch!


Thanks for your review.

Shouldn't clk_total be u64?


Well, it was intentionally u32, and amiga_clk.mask was intentionally 
CLOCKSOURCE_MASK(32)...

It's certainly possible. Is it better? It sounds like a question about the 
cost of wrap-around in the clocksource core vs. the cost of 64-bit 
additions in the arch code.

Looking at __clocksource_update_freq_scale() there are some consequences 
to choosing a 32-bit mask --

                 * For clocksources which have a mask > 32-bit
                 * we need to limit the max sleep time to have a good
                 * conversion precision.

I don't know the answer, sorry.
