Andrew Morton 199e705689 [PATCH] hrtimer: export deinlined mktime
This is now uninlined, but some modules use it.

Make it a non-GPL export, since the inlined mktime() was also available that
way.

Matt Helsley 64123fd42c [PATCH] Add getnstimestamp function
There are several functions that might seem appropriate for a timestamp:

get_cycles()
current_kernel_time()
do_gettimeofday()
<read jiffies/jiffies_64>

Each has problems with combinations of SMP-safety, low resolution, and
monotonicity. This patch adds a new function that returns a monotonic SMP-safe
timestamp with nanosecond resolution where available.

Changes:
	Split timestamp into separate patch
	Moved to kernel/time.c
	Renamed to getnstimestamp
	Fixed unintended-pointer-arithmetic bug

john stultz 1bb34a4127 [PATCH] NTP shift_right cleanup
Create a macro shift_right() that avoids the numerous ugly conditionals in the
NTP code that look like:

        if(a < 0)
                b = -(-a >> shift);
        else
                b = a >> shift;

Replacing it with:

        b = shift_right(a, shift);

This should have zero effect on the logic, however it should probably have
a bit of testing just to be sure.

Also replace open-coded min/max with the macros.

Jesper Juhl 77933d7276 [PATCH] clean up inline static vs static inline
`gcc -W' likes to complain if the static keyword is not at the beginning of
the declaration.  This patch fixes all remaining occurrences of "inline
static" up with "static inline" in the entire kernel tree (140 occurrences in
47 files).

While making this change I came across a few lines with trailing whitespace
that I also fixed up, I have also added or removed a blank line or two here
and there, but there are no functional changes in the patch.

Christoph Lameter 9acf6597c5 [PATCH] time interpolator: Fix settimeofday inaccuracy
settimeofday will set the time a little bit too early on systems using
time interpolation since it subtracts the current interpolator offset
from the time. This used to be necessary with the code in 2.6.9 and earlier
but the new code resets the time interpolator after setting the time.
Thus the time is set too early and gettimeofday will return a time slightly
before the time specified with settimeofday if invoked immeditely after
settimeofday.

This removes the obsolete subtraction of the time interpolator offset
and makes settimeofday set the time accurately.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
