Subject: [patch V2 00/64] timekeeping: 2038, optimizations, NMI safe accessors

Changes versus V1 [http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140711133623.530368377@linutronix.de]

  - Addressed review comments and testing fallout

  - Simplified update of the ktime_t data in the timekeeper

  - Replaced some more interfaces which are availabe as timespec and
    ktime_t by the ktime_t version to get rid of the duplicated data.

  - Restructured the timekeeper again to share code with the NMI safe
    accessor, which simplifies the update to pure memcpy().

  - Removed the monotonic raw fast accessor

I also verified the size impact of the whole endavour:

x86_64:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
before:
 992378	 104211	 454784	1551373	 17ac0d	../build/kernel/built-in.o
2038 changes only:
 992312	 104211	 454784	1551307	 17abcb	../build/kernel/built-in.o
full series applied:
 991724	 104210	 454976	1550910	 17aa3e	../build/kernel/built-in.o

i386:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
before:
 910278	  56201	 372436	1338915	 146e23	../build-i386/kernel/built-in.o
2038 changes only:
 912381	  56201	 372468	1341050	 14767a	../build-i386/kernel/built-in.o
full series applied:
 911607	  56200	 372596	1340403	 1473f3	../build-i386/kernel/built-in.o

arm:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
before:
 443444	  58965	7813144	8315553	 7ee2a1	../build-arm/kernel/built-in.o
2038 changes only:
 445205	  58965	7813176	8317346	 7ee9a2	../build-arm/kernel/built-in.o
full series applied:
 444708	  58964	7813368	8317040	 7ee870	../build-arm/kernel/built-in.o

So on x8664 the new functionality comes with smaller size. I whish I
could say the same for 32bit, but there we pay the prize for making
the core timekeeping code 2038 ready. But also there, while the 2038
stuff adds ~2k, the rest (cleanup and the new monotonic accessor)
removes ~0.5k again. So features are not necessarily bundled with
bloat :)

The series is against tip/timers/core. It's also available in git at:

Thanks,
