Subject: [GIT PULL] timers/core changes for v3.8

Linus,

Please pull the latest timers-core-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git timers-core-for-linus

   HEAD: 9c3f9e281697d02889c3b08922f3b30be75f56c2 Merge branch 'fortglx/3.8/time' of git://git.linaro.org/people/jstultz/linux into timers/core

It contains continued generic-NOHZ work by Frederic and smaller 
cleanups.

 Thanks,

	Ingo

------------------>
Chuansheng Liu (1):
      tick: Correct the comments for tick_sched_timer()

Dan Carpenter (1):
      clocksource: clean up parse_pmtmr()

Frederic Weisbecker (3):
      tick: Consolidate timekeeping handling code
      tick: Consolidate tick handling for high and low res handlers
      tick: Conditionally build nohz specific code in tick handler

John Stultz (1):
      time: Kill xtime_lock, replacing it with jiffies_lock

Lars-Peter Clausen (1):
      time/jiffies: Make clocksource_jiffies static

Linus Walleij (1):
      clocksource: arm_generic: use integer math helpers

Shan Wei (1):
      clocksource: arm_generic: use this_cpu_ptr per-cpu helper
