	We have two race conditions in the probe code which could lead to a null pointer dereference in the interrupt handler. The interrupt handler accesses the clockevent device, which may not yet be registered. First race condition happens when the interrupt handler gets registered before the interrupts get disabled. The second race condition happens when the interrupts get enabled, but the clockevent device is not yet registered. Fix that by disabling the interrupts before we register the interrupt and enable the interrupts after the clockevent device got registered.

2014-07-23	clocksource: Add support for the Mediatek SoCs	Matthias Brugger
	This patch adds a clock source and clock event for the timer found on the Mediatek SoCs. The Mediatek General Purpose Timer block provides five 32 bit timers and one 64 bit timer. Two 32 bit timers are used by this driver: TIMER1: clock events supporting periodic and oneshot events TIMER2: clock source configured as a free running counter The General Purpose Timer block can be run with two clocks. A 13 MHz system clock and the RTC clock running at 32 KHz. This implementation uses the system clock with no clock source divider. The interrupts are shared between the different timers and have to be read back from a register. We just enable one interrupt for the clock event. The clock event timer is used by all cores.
