I did mess up.
Alexander, can you test that:
diff --git a/drivers/clocksource/timer-atmel-tcb.c b/drivers/clocksource/timer-atmel-tcb.c
index 7fde9cfbf203..bbbacf8c46b0 100644
--- a/drivers/clocksource/timer-atmel-tcb.c
+++ b/drivers/clocksource/timer-atmel-tcb.c
@@ -222,7 +222,7 @@ static int __init tc_clkevt_register(struct device_node *node,
goto err_slow;
clk_disable(tce.clk);
- clockevents_config_and_register(&tce.clkevt, 32768, 1, bits - 1);
+ clockevents_config_and_register(&tce.clkevt, 32768, 1, BIT(bits) - 1);
ret = request_irq(tce.irq, tc_clkevt2_irq, IRQF_TIMER | IRQF_SHARED,
tce.clkevt.name, &tce);
This will behave exactly the same as before on 16bits TCB and will have
much less interrupts on 32 bits platforms.
