96dd7421a0 [PATCH] prevent timespec/timeval to ktime_t overflow
Frank v.  Waveren pointed out that on 64bit machines the timespec to
ktime_t conversion might overflow.  This is also true for timeval to
ktime_t conversions.  This breaks a "sleep inf" on 64bit machines.

While a timespec/timeval with tx.sec = MAX_LONG is valid by specification
the internal representation of ktime_t is based on nanoseconds.  The
conversion of seconds to nanoseconds overflows for seconds values >=
(MAX_LONG / NSEC_PER_SEC).

Check the seconds argument to the conversion and limit it to the maximum
time which can be represented by ktime_t.

272705c597 [PATCH] hrtimers: remove DEFINE_KTIME and ktime_to_clock_t()
Now that it_real_value is gone, the last user of DEFINE_KTIME and
ktime_to_clock_t are also gone, so remove it before someone starts using it
again.

b2ee9dbfad [PATCH] hrtimer: fix multiple macro argument expansion
For two macros the arguments were expanded twice, change them to inline
functions to avoid it.

66188fae3b [PATCH] hrtimers: add back lost credit lines
At some point we added credits to people who actively helped to bring
k/hr-timers along.  This was lost in the big code revamp.  Add it back.

e2787630c1 [hrtimer] Change resolution storage to ktime_t format
Change the storage format of the per base resolution to ktime_t to
make it easier accessible in the hrtimers code.

Change the resolution from (NSEC_PER_SEC/HZ) to TICK_NSEC as Roman
pointed out. TICK_NSEC is closer to the real resolution.

97fc79f97b [PATCH] hrtimer: introduce ktime_t time format
- introduce ktime_t: nanosecond-resolution time format.

- eliminate the plain s64 scalar type, and always use the union.
  This simplifies the arithmetics. Idea from Roman Zippel.
