Merge branch 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull ntp fix from Ingo Molnar: "An adjtimex interface regression fix for 32-bit systems" [ A check that was added in a previous commit is really only a concern for 64bit systems, but was applied to both 32 and 64bit systems, which results in breaking 32bit systems. Thus the fix here is to make the check only apply to 64bit systems ] * 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: ntp: Fixup adjtimex freq validation on 32-bit systems
