powerpc/time: Fix clockevent_decrementer initalisation for PR KVM
In the recent commit 8b78fdb045de ("powerpc/time: Use clockevents_register_device(), fixing an issue with large decrementer") we changed the way we initialise the decrementer clockevent(s). We no longer initialise the mult & shift values of decrementer_clockevent itself. This has the effect of breaking PR KVM, because it uses those values in kvmppc_emulate_dec(). The symptom is guest kernels spin forever mid-way through boot. For now fix it by assigning back to decrementer_clockevent the mult and shift values. Fixes: 8b78fdb045de ("powerpc/time: Use clockevents_register_device(), fixing an issue with large decrementer") Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
