clocksource: Install completely before selecting
commit e05b2efb82596905ebfe88e8612ee81dec9b6592 upstream. Christian Hoffmann reported that the command line clocksource override with acpi_pm timer fails: Kernel command line: <SNIP> clocksource=acpi_pm hpet clockevent registered Switching to clocksource hpet Override clocksource acpi_pm is not HRT compatible. Cannot switch while in HRT/NOHZ mode. The watchdog code is what enables CLOCK_SOURCE_VALID_FOR_HRES, but we actually end up selecting the clocksource before we enqueue it into the watchdog list, so that's why we see the warning and fail to switch to acpi_pm timer as requested. That's particularly bad when we want to debug timekeeping related problems in early boot. Put the selection call last. [PG: 34 doesn't have __clocksource_register_scale, so drop that 1/2] Reported-by: Christian Hoffmann <email@christianhoffmann.info> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/%3C1304558210.2943.24.camel%40work-vm%3E Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
