Merge branch 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer and time updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A rather large update of timers, timekeeping & co
   - Core timekeeping code is year-2038 safe now for 32bit machines.
     Now we just need to fix all in kernel users and the gazillion of
     user space interfaces which rely on timespec/timeval :)
   - Better cache layout for the timekeeping internal data structures.
   - Proper nanosecond based interfaces for in kernel users.
   - Tree wide cleanup of code which wants nanoseconds but does hoops
     and loops to convert back and forth from timespecs.  Some of it
     definitely belongs into the ugly code museum.
   - Consolidation of the timekeeping interface zoo.
   - A fast NMI safe accessor to clock monotonic for tracing.  This is a
     long standing request to support correlated user/kernel space
     traces.  With proper NTP frequency correction it's also suitable
     for correlation of traces accross separate machines.
   - Checkpoint/restart support for timerfd.
   - A few NOHZ[_FULL] improvements in the [hr]timer code.
   - Code move from kernel to kernel/time of all time* related code.
   - New clocksource/event drivers from the ARM universe.  I'm really
     impressed that despite an architected timer in the newer chips SoC
     manufacturers insist on inventing new and differently broken SoC
     specific timers.
[ Ed. "Impressed"? I don't think that word means what you think it means ]
   - Another round of code move from arch to drivers.  Looks like most
     of the legacy mess in ARM regarding timers is sorted out except for
     a few obnoxious strongholds.
   - The usual updates and fixlets all over the place"
