------------------------------------------------------
Subject: clocksource: save mult_orig in clocksource_disable()
From: Magnus Damm <damm@xxxxxxxxxx>
Save clocksource mult_orig in clocksource_disable().
To fix the common case where ->enable() does not setup mult, make sure
mult_orig is saved in mult on disable.
Also add comments to explain why we do this.
