#1548069 — [PATCH] clockevents/drivers/cs5535: Un-break driver with 'set-state' interface

Since migrating to the 'set-state' interface the cs5535 driver causes a
crash after loading: Right after initialization, the IRQ handler
(mfgpt_tick) is triggered with clock event device in detached state. This
state not properly handled and causes a crash through NULL pointer
dereference upon calling the clockevent's event_handler.

This patch fixes this by handling the detached state the same way the
shutdown state is handled.

Sorry for breaking it, but it looks we have unearthed a bug because of
my patch.

I wouldn't enable the IRQ unless the clockevents core has asked for
it, i.e. by calling set_state_periodic() or set_state_oneshot().

The driver is currently enabling the IRQ from its init code and that's
where the problem is IMHO.
