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

Pull core timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Timers and timekeeping updates: - A large overhaul of the posix CPU timer code which is a preparation for moving the CPU timer expiry out into task work so it can be properly accounted on the task/process. An update to the bogus permission checks will come later during the merge window as feedback was not complete before heading of for travel. - Switch the timerqueue code to use cached rbtrees and get rid of the homebrewn caching of the leftmost node. - Consolidate hrtimer_init() + hrtimer_init_sleeper() calls into a single function - Implement the separation of hrtimers to be forced to expire in hard interrupt context even when PREEMPT_RT is enabled and mark the affected timers accordingly. - Implement a mechanism for hrtimers and the timer wheel to protect RT against priority inversion and live lock issues when a (hr)timer which should be canceled is currently executing the callback. Instead of infinitely spinning, the task which tries to cancel the timer blocks on a per cpu base expiry lock which is held and released by the (hr)timer expiry code. - Enable the Hyper-V TSC page based sched_clock for Hyper-V guests resulting in faster access to timekeeping functions. - Updates to various clocksource/clockevent drivers and their device tree bindings. - The usual small improvements all over the place" * 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (101 commits) posix-cpu-timers: Fix permission check regression posix-cpu-timers: Always clear head pointer on dequeue hrtimer: Add a missing bracket and hide `migration_base' on !SMP posix-cpu-timers: Make expiry_active check actually work correctly posix-timers: Unbreak CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS=n build tick: Mark sched_timer to expire in hard interrupt context hrtimer: Add kernel doc annotation for HRTIMER_MODE_HARD x86/hyperv: Hide pv_ops access for CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n posix-cpu-timers: Utilize timerqueue for storage posix-cpu-timers: Move state tracking to struct posix_cputimers posix-cpu-timers: Deduplicate rlimit handling posix-cpu-timers: Remove pointless comparisons posix-cpu-timers: Get rid of 64bit divisions posix-cpu-timers: Consolidate timer expiry further posix-cpu-timers: Get rid of zero checks rlimit: Rewrite non-sensical RLIMIT_CPU comment posix-cpu-timers: Respect INFINITY for hard RTTIME limit posix-cpu-timers: Switch thread group sampling to array posix-cpu-timers: Restructure expiry array posix-cpu-timers: Remove cputime_expires ...
