Sorry, I was AFK last few days.

Well, I confirmed that the current version (v2) is good for Linus's
tree and 28-stable tree, but it troubles on -tip.
So I made patches for -tip.  It will follow to this post.

[PATCH 1/2] x86: Rename __task_delta_exec() to task_delta_exec_locked()
[PATCH 2/2] posixtimers: Fix posix clock monotonicity v2

The [2/2] is essentially no different from previous version, but
just have solved a fuzz against -tip.


Thanks,
H.Seto
