Merge branch 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This update provides the following changes:

   - The rework of the timer wheel which addresses the shortcomings of
     the current wheel (cascading, slow search for next expiring timer,
     etc).  That's the first major change of the wheel in almost 20
     years since Finn implemted it.

   - A large overhaul of the clocksource drivers init functions to
     consolidate the Device Tree initialization

   - Some more Y2038 updates

   - A capability fix for timerfd

   - Yet another clock chip driver

   - The usual pile of updates, comment improvements all over the place"

* 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (130 commits)
  tick/nohz: Optimize nohz idle enter

+Oxford Semiconductor OXNAS SoCs Family RPS Timer
+================================================
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should be "oxsemi,ox810se-rps-timer"
+- reg : Specifies base physical address and size of the registers.
+- interrupts : The interrupts of the two timers
+- clocks : The phandle of the timer clock source
+
+example:
+
+timer0: timer@200 {
+	compatible = "oxsemi,ox810se-rps-timer";
+	reg = <0x200 0x40>;
+	clocks = <&rpsclk>;
+	interrupts = <4 5>;
+};

 /*
- * per-CPU timer vector definitions:
+ * The timer wheel has LVL_DEPTH array levels. Each level provides an array of
+ * LVL_SIZE buckets. Each level is driven by its own clock and therefor each
+ * level has a different granularity.
+ *
+ * The level granularity is:		LVL_CLK_DIV ^ lvl
+ * The level clock frequency is:	HZ / (LVL_CLK_DIV ^ level)
+ *
+ * The array level of a newly armed timer depends on the relative expiry
+ * time. The farther the expiry time is away the higher the array level and
+ * therefor the granularity becomes.
+ *
+ * Contrary to the original timer wheel implementation, which aims for 'exact'
+ * expiry of the timers, this implementation removes the need for recascading
+ * the timers into the lower array levels. The previous 'classic' timer wheel
+ * implementation of the kernel already violated the 'exact' expiry by adding
+ * slack to the expiry time to provide batched expiration. The granularity
+ * levels provide implicit batching.
+ *
+ * This is an optimization of the original timer wheel implementation for the
+ * majority of the timer wheel use cases: timeouts. The vast majority of
+ * timeout timers (networking, disk I/O ...) are canceled before expiry. If
+ * the timeout expires it indicates that normal operation is disturbed, so it
+ * does not matter much whether the timeout comes with a slight delay.
+ *
+ * The only exception to this are networking timers with a small expiry
+ * time. They rely on the granularity. Those fit into the first wheel level,
+ * which has HZ granularity.
+ *
+ * We don't have cascading anymore. timers with a expiry time above the
+ * capacity of the last wheel level are force expired at the maximum timeout
+ * value of the last wheel level. From data sampling we know that the maximum
+ * value observed is 5 days (network connection tracking), so this should not
+ * be an issue.
+ *
+ * The currently chosen array constants values are a good compromise between
+ * array size and granularity.
+ *
+ * This results in the following granularity and range levels:
+ *
