Invalid prescaler value is silently ignored. Fix that
by returning -EINVAL in such case. As invalid value
disabled use of the prescaler, use -1 explicitely for
that purpose.

Argh... This is actually wrong, as it leaves timer enabled.
I suggest simply dropping this patch and I'll rethink whole
approach a bit later (and better).

Okay. I hope the rest 9 patches work well for you.

Yes. I rebased event capture patches on top of this serie (based on
linux-next) and will post them during next week for review. Fixed
patch will be included (note, it is not really needed for your serie
as noone is calling this function).
