Merge tag 'timers-urgent-2020-02-09' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "Two small fixes for the time(r) subsystem: - Handle a subtle race between the clocksource watchdog and a concurrent clocksource watchdog stop/start sequence correctly to prevent a timer double add bug. - Fix the file path for the core time namespace file" * tag 'timers-urgent-2020-02-09' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: clocksource: Prevent double add_timer_on() for watchdog_timer MAINTAINERS: Correct path to time namespace source file
