Subject: clockevents: fix device replacement
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When a device is replaced by a better rated device, then the broadcast
mode needs to be evaluated again. When the new device has no requirement
for broadcasting, then the broadcast bits for the CPU must be cleared.
