posix-timers: Introduce a syscall for clock tuning.
A new syscall is introduced that allows tuning of a POSIX clock. The new call, clock_adjtime, takes two parameters, the clock ID and a pointer to a struct timex. Any ADJTIMEX(2) operation may be requested via this system call, but various POSIX clocks may or may not support tuning. [ tglx: Adapted to the posix-timer cleanup series. Avoid copy_to_user in the error case ] Signed-off-by: Richard Cochran <richard.cochran@omicron.at> Acked-by: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> LKML-Reference: <20110201134419.869804645@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
