genirq/timings: Optimize the period detection speed
With a minimal period and if there is a period which is a multiple of it but lesser than the max period then it will be detected before and the minimal period will be never reached. 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 <-----> <-----> <-----> <-> <-> <-> <-> <-> <-> In that case, the minimum period is 2 and the maximum period is 5. That means all repeating pattern of 2 will be detected as repeating pattern of 4, it is pointless to go up to 2 when searching for the period as it will always fail. Remove one loop iteration by increasing the minimal period to 3.
