Subject: [GIT pull] timer fixes for 3.10

Linus,

please pull the latest timers-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

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

Content:

	* Cure for not using zalloc in the first place, which leads to
          random crashes with CPUMASK_OFF_STACK.

	* Revert a user space visible change which broke udev
	
	* Add a missing cpu_online early return introduced by the new
          full dyntick conversions

	* Plug a long standing race in the timer wheel cpu hotplug
          code. Sigh...

	* Cleanup NOHZ per cpu data on cpu down to prevent stale data
          on cpu up.

Thanks,

	tglx

------------------>
John Stultz (1):
      time: Revert ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK compile time optimizaitons

Thomas Gleixner (3):
      tick: Use zalloc_cpumask_var for allocating offstack cpumasks
      tick: Cleanup NOHZ per cpu data on cpu down
      tick: Don't invoke tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() if the cpu is offline

Tirupathi Reddy (1):
      timer: Don't reinitialize the cpu base lock during CPU_UP_PREPARE
