posix-timers: Introduce a syscall for clock tuning.
A new syscall is introduced that allows tuning of a POSIX clock. The
new call, clock_adjtime, takes two parameters, the clock ID and a
pointer to a struct timex. Any ADJTIMEX(2) operation may be requested
via this system call, but various POSIX clocks may or may not support
tuning.
[ tglx: Adapted to the posix-timer cleanup series. Avoid copy_to_user
in the error case ]
