Merge branch 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: "The timers departement more or less proudly presents: - More Y2038 timekeeping work mostly in the core code. The work is slowly, but steadily targeting the actuall syscalls. - Enhanced timekeeping suspend/resume support by utilizing clocksources which do not stop during suspend, but are otherwise not the main timekeeping clocksources. - Make NTP adjustmets more accurate and immediate when the frequency is set directly and not incrementally. - Sanitize the overrung handing of posix timers - A new timer driver for Mediatek SoCs - The usual pile of fixes and updates all over the place" * 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (32 commits) clockevents: Warn if cpu_all_mask is used as cpumask tick/broadcast-hrtimer: Use cpu_possible_mask for ce_broadcast_hrtimer clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Fix bogus cpu_all_mask usage clocksource: ti-32k: Remove CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag timers: Clear timer_base::must_forward_clk with timer_base::lock held clocksource/drivers/sprd: Register one always-on timer to compensate suspend time clocksource/drivers/timer-mediatek: Add support for system timer clocksource/drivers/timer-mediatek: Convert the driver to timer-of clocksource/drivers/timer-mediatek: Use specific prefix for GPT clocksource/drivers/timer-mediatek: Rename mtk_timer to timer-mediatek clocksource/drivers/timer-mediatek: Add system timer bindings clocksource/drivers: Set clockevent device cpumask to cpu_possible_mask time: Introduce one suspend clocksource to compensate the suspend time time: Fix extra sleeptime injection when suspend fails timekeeping/ntp: Constify some function arguments ntp: Use kstrtos64 for s64 variable ntp: Remove redundant arguments timer: Fix coding style ktime: Provide typesafe ktime_to_ns() hrtimer: Improve kernel message printing ...

-Mediatek MT6577, MT6572 and MT6589 Timers
----------------------------------------
+Mediatek Timers
+---------------
+
+Mediatek SoCs have two different timers on different platforms,
+- GPT (General Purpose Timer)
+- SYST (System Timer)
+
+The proper timer will be selected automatically by driver.
Required properties:
- compatible should contain:
- * "mediatek,mt2701-timer" for MT2701 compatible timers
- * "mediatek,mt6580-timer" for MT6580 compatible timers
- * "mediatek,mt6589-timer" for MT6589 compatible timers
- * "mediatek,mt7623-timer" for MT7623 compatible timers
- * "mediatek,mt8127-timer" for MT8127 compatible timers
- * "mediatek,mt8135-timer" for MT8135 compatible timers
- * "mediatek,mt8173-timer" for MT8173 compatible timers
- * "mediatek,mt6577-timer" for MT6577 and all above compatible timers
-- reg: Should contain location and length for timers register.
-- clocks: Clocks driving the timer hardware. This list should include two
- clocks. The order is system clock and as second clock the RTC clock.
