rtc: Limit RTC PIE frequency
The RTC pie hrtimer is self rearming. We really need to limit the frequency to something sensible. Thus limit it to the 8192Hz max value from the rtc man documentation Cc: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> [jstultz: slightly reworked to use RTC_MAX_FREQ value] Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>
