Subject: [GIT pull] timer fixes for 4.12

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

Silence dmesg spam by making the posix cpu timer printks depend on
print_fatal_signals.

Thanks,

	tglx
