Merge branch 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull timer changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Main changes in this cycle were:

   - Updated full dynticks support.

   - Event stream support for architected (ARM) timers.

   - ARM clocksource driver updates.

   - Move arm64 to using the generic sched_clock framework & resulting
     cleanup in the generic sched_clock code.

   - Misc fixes and cleanups"

+	  With VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN, cputime_t becomes 64-bit.
+	  Before enabling this option, arch code must be audited
+	  to ensure there are no races in concurrent read/write of
+	  cputime_t. For example, reading/writing 64-bit cputime_t on
+	  some 32-bit arches may require multiple accesses, so proper
+	  locking is needed to protect against concurrent accesses.
