[PATCH V2 1/2] clockevents: Add helpers to verify state of a clockevent device

[Viresh Kumar]

Some clockevent drivers, once migrated to use per-state callbacks, would
need to verify 'state' of the clockevent device in their callbacks or
interrupt handler.

Add accessor functions clockevent_state_*() to get this information.
