Merge branch 'timers-timekeeping-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip
* 'timers-timekeeping-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip: um: Fix read_persistent_clock fallout kgdb: Do not access xtime directly powerpc: Clean up obsolete code relating to decrementer and timebase powerpc: Rework VDSO gettimeofday to prevent time going backwards clocksource: Add __clocksource_updatefreq_hz/khz methods x86: Convert common clocksources to use clocksource_register_hz/khz timekeeping: Make xtime and wall_to_monotonic static hrtimer: Cleanup direct access to wall_to_monotonic um: Convert to use read_persistent_clock timkeeping: Fix update_vsyscall to provide wall_to_monotonic offset powerpc: Cleanup xtime usage powerpc: Simplify update_vsyscall time: Kill off CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME time: Implement timespec_add x86: Fix vtime/file timestamp inconsistencies Trivial conflicts in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt Much less trivial conflicts in arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c resolved as per Thomas' earlier merge commit 47916be4e28c ("Merge branch 'powerpc.cherry-picks' into timers/clocksource")
