Correct, I forgot the #ifdef inside that function.
I made also some more tests and it turned out that my patch works but
not as expected. The clock now runs at constant rate at any speedstep
frequency, which is what I wanted, but unfortunately it is always ~20%
slower than wall clock.
I tried also to force different values of ticks_per_sec but it seems
that it has no effects on irq frequency, so there must be something that
I don't understand in the timer code.
Any idea on how to fix this bug?
