Subject: [GIT pull] timer updates for 2.6.27

Linus,

Please pull the latest timers-fixes-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git timers-fixes-for-linus

This removes a WARN_ON which I (ab)used to gather information about
the HPET reprogramming issue. It served it's purpose and can be
removed now.

Thanks,

	tglx
