Merge branch 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: - The final conversion of timer wheel timers to timer_setup(). A few manual conversions and a large coccinelle assisted sweep and the removal of the old initialization mechanisms and the related code. - Remove the now unused VSYSCALL update code - Fix permissions of /proc/timer_list. I still need to get rid of that file completely - Rename a misnomed clocksource function and remove a stale declaration * 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (27 commits) m68k/macboing: Fix missed timer callback assignment treewide: Remove TIMER_FUNC_TYPE and TIMER_DATA_TYPE casts timer: Remove redundant __setup_timer*() macros timer: Pass function down to initialization routines timer: Remove unused data arguments from macros timer: Switch callback prototype to take struct timer_list * argument timer: Pass timer_list pointer to callbacks unconditionally Coccinelle: Remove setup_timer.cocci timer: Remove setup_*timer() interface timer: Remove init_timer() interface treewide: setup_timer() -> timer_setup() (2 field) treewide: setup_timer() -> timer_setup() treewide: init_timer() -> setup_timer() treewide: Switch DEFINE_TIMER callbacks to struct timer_list * s390: cmm: Convert timers to use timer_setup() lightnvm: Convert timers to use timer_setup() drivers/net: cris: Convert timers to use timer_setup() drm/vc4: Convert timers to use timer_setup() block/laptop_mode: Convert timers to use timer_setup() net/atm/mpc: Avoid open-coded assignment of timer callback function ...
