Hello list,
The good definition of CLOCK_TICK_RATE for coldfires has been lost in the
merge of m68k and m68knommu include files. Restore it. Culprit :

Is it needed?
What is broken with the existing value?
I am no ntp expert, but IIRC kernel/time/ntp.c needs to know the remainder
of CLOCK_TICK_RATE / HZ to obtain a good stability of the time. That's
probably only needed when you have ntpd running.
I thought it did that based on gettimeofday()? And that ends up
going through the underlying timer code, which for both of
the ColdFire timer types doesn't use CLOCK_TICK_RATE. They directly
use the MCF_CLK definition.

Greg
