Message-Id: <1230360578-6605-1-git-send-email-vapier@gentoo.org>
Date:	Sat, 27 Dec 2008 01:49:38 -0500
From:	Mike Frysinger <vapier@...too.org>

Subject: [PATCH] linux/timex.h: cleanup for userspace

Move all the kernel-specific defines and includes into the __KERNEL__
section so that they don't get leaked into userspace.
