  15 /* The default ptimer policy retains backward compatibility with the legacy
  16  * timers. Custom policies are adjusting the default one. Consider providing
  17  * a correct policy for your timer.
  18  *
  19  * The rough edges of the default policy:
  20  *  - Starting to run with a period = 0 emits error message and stops the
  21  *    timer without a trigger.
  22  *
  23  *  - Setting period to 0 of the running timer emits error message and
  24  *    stops the timer without a trigger.
  25  *
  26  *  - Starting to run with counter = 0 or setting it to "0" while timer
  27  *    is running causes a trigger and reloads counter with a limit value.
  28  *    If limit = 0, ptimer emits error message and stops the timer.
  29  *
  30  *  - Counter value of the running timer is one less than the actual value.
  31  *
  32  *  - Changing period/frequency of the running timer loses time elapsed
  33  *    since the last period, effectively restarting the timer with a
  34  *    counter = counter value at the moment of change (.i.e. one less).
