      clockevents: Prevent oneshot mode when broadcast device is periodic · 3a142a06
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      When the per cpu timer is marked CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP, then we only
      can switch into oneshot mode, when the backup broadcast device
      supports oneshot mode as well. Otherwise we would try to switch the
      broadcast device into an unsupported mode unconditionally. This went
      unnoticed so far as the current available broadcast devices support
      oneshot mode. Seth unearthed this problem while debugging and working
      around an hpet related BIOS wreckage.
      
      Add the necessary check to tick_is_oneshot_available().
