struct clock_event_device is only completely defined when CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS is defined, which it isn't. But I'm confused as to why TIMER_OF getting selected by allyesconfig since it depends on GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS.


It seems to be due to CLKSRC_PISTACHIO being selected, I guess that should also depend on GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS.
