Subject: [GIT pull] timer fix for 4.9

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

A single fix for a regression introduced in 4.8 which causes the trace/perf
clock to return random nonsense if CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING is set.


Thanks,

	tglx
