Issues in Linux HPET example

[Jaswinder Singh Rajput]

Hello,

By executing Documentation/timers/hpet_example.c

for polling, I requested for 3 iterations but it seems iteration work
for only 2 as first expired time is always very small.

[root@netbook timers]# ./hpet_example poll /dev/hpet 10 3
-hpet: executing poll
hpet_poll: info.hi_flags 0x0
hpet_poll: expired time = 0x13
hpet_poll: revents = 0x1
hpet_poll: data 0x1
hpet_poll: expired time = 0x1868c
hpet_poll: revents = 0x1
hpet_poll: data 0x1
hpet_poll: expired time = 0x18645
hpet_poll: revents = 0x1
hpet_poll: data 0x1
[root@netbook timers]#

for fasync, I requested for 3 iterations but it shows 4 counts.

[root@netbook timers]# ./hpet_example fasync /dev/hpet 10 3
-hpet: executing fasync
hpet_fasync: info.hi_flags 0x0
hpet_sigio: called
hpet_sigio: called
hpet_fasync: count = 2
hpet_sigio: called
hpet_fasync: count = 3
hpet_sigio: called
hpet_fasync: count = 4
[root@netbook timers]#

How can I fix these issues.

Thanks,
