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"
