Arnd, thank you for this patch!
It reminded me that I really missed to fully implement the clockevents on parisc!
Your other patch ("RFC: m68k: mac: convert to generic clockevent")
was a big help too, as it showed how it might work on parisc as well.
Here is now a current version of the clockevents-enabling-patch for parisc:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux.git/commit/?h=for-next&id=3b7ab4a74a2d1972dbeb33285d85f1500b2ff96a

My patch still needs more testing, but if it turns to work
out right, would you mind to drop your patch for parisc?
