Subject: [PATCH 06/21] ntp: Read reference time only once

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

The reference time is required twice in ntp_update_offset(). It will not
change in the meantime as the calling code holds the timekeeper lock. Read
it only once and store it into a local variable.
