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:

   - ntp: Add CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC: a generic RTC driver facility
     complementing the existing CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS, which uses NTP to
     keep the hardware clock updated.

   - posix-timers: Fix clock_adjtime to always return timex data on
     success.  This is changing the ABI, but no breakage was expected
     and found - caution is warranted nevertheless.

   - platform persistent clock improvements/cleanups.

   - clockevents: refactor timer broadcast handling to be more generic
     and less duplicated with matching architecture code (mostly ARM
     motivated.)

   - various fixes and cleanups"

* 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  timers/x86/hpet: Use HPET_COUNTER to specify the hpet counter in vread_hpet()
  posix-cpu-timers: Fix nanosleep task_struct leak
  clockevents: Fix generic broadcast for FEAT_C3STOP
  time, Fix setting of hardware clock in NTP code
  hrtimer: Prevent hrtimer_enqueue_reprogram race
  clockevents: Add generic timer broadcast function
  clockevents: Add generic timer broadcast receiver
  timekeeping: Switch HAS_PERSISTENT_CLOCK to ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK
  x86/time/rtc: Don't print extended CMOS year when reading RTC
  x86: Select HAS_PERSISTENT_CLOCK on x86
  timekeeping: Add CONFIG_HAS_PERSISTENT_CLOCK option
  rtc: Skip the suspend/resume handling if persistent clock exist
  timekeeping: Add persistent_clock_exist flag
  posix-timers: Fix clock_adjtime to always return timex data on success
  Round the calculated scale factor in set_cyc2ns_scale()
  NTP: Add a CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC configuration
  MAINTAINERS: Update John Stultz's email
