Subject: [GIT pull] timer fixes 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 is a rather large update that late in the rc cycle, but it's all
really important bugfixes around the timers/timekeeping code.

The C1E idle support (added in .27) made some long standing bugs in
the timers code more prominent and I spent almost two weeks now going
through the code with a fine comb, creating debug patches and tracking
down the last (and for me most embarrassing) bug in the hpet code
along with a new workaround for hardware bugs^Wfeatures in ATI HPETs
which need a readback of the compare value _before_ reading the count
register to verify that we did not miss the event.

The patches are confirmed by various testers and close a couple of
entries in the regression list [BZ #11145 #11191 #11279] and some
other related bug reports.

Also passed in -tip testing on a broad range of x86 boxes.

I thought about disabling C1E for .27, but the bugs are real and
affect non C1E systems as well. So fixing them is better than hiding
them and hope they wont trigger.

The timekeeping patches vs. acpi_pm and ntp were collected and tested
by Andrew and have been in -mm for some time.

Thanks,

	tglx
