Currently, the x86's uv rtc clockevent device is initialized as follows: clock_event_device_uv.min_delta_ns = NSEC_PER_SEC / sn_rtc_cycles_per_second; clock_event_device_uv.max_delta_ns = clocksource_uv.mask * (NSEC_PER_SEC / sn_rtc_cycles_per_second); This translates to a ->min_delta_ticks value of 1 and a ->max_delta_ticks value of clocksource_uv.mask. Initialize ->min_delta_ticks and ->max_delta_ticks with these values respectively. This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this driver.
