Linus Torvalds 7f2444d38f Merge branch 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull core timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Timers and timekeeping updates:

   - A large overhaul of the posix CPU timer code which is a preparation
     for moving the CPU timer expiry out into task work so it can be
     properly accounted on the task/process.

     An update to the bogus permission checks will come later during the
     merge window as feedback was not complete before heading of for
     travel.

   - Switch the timerqueue code to use cached rbtrees and get rid of the
     homebrewn caching of the leftmost node.

   - Consolidate hrtimer_init() + hrtimer_init_sleeper() calls into a
     single function

   - Implement the separation of hrtimers to be forced to expire in hard
     interrupt context even when PREEMPT_RT is enabled and mark the
     affected timers accordingly.

   - Implement a mechanism for hrtimers and the timer wheel to protect
     RT against priority inversion and live lock issues when a (hr)timer
     which should be canceled is currently executing the callback.
     Instead of infinitely spinning, the task which tries to cancel the
     timer blocks on a per cpu base expiry lock which is held and
     released by the (hr)timer expiry code.

   - Enable the Hyper-V TSC page based sched_clock for Hyper-V guests
     resulting in faster access to timekeeping functions.

   - Updates to various clocksource/clockevent drivers and their device
     tree bindings.

   - The usual small improvements all over the place"
