Subject: [GIT pull] hrtimer fixes
Linus,
please pull hrtimer fixes from:
ssh://master.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/linux-2.6-hrt.git master
The first patch fixes an overflow problem, which is caused by missing
checks in the relative to absolute time conversion in the futex
code. It got caught by the WARN_ON() in clockevents_program_event().
The second patch prevents a false positive of the same WARN_ON().
Fixes are confirmed to solve http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/10/137
Thanks,
tglx
