mainlining shenanigans
8596e589b7
Core code:
- Cure a couple of incorrectness issues in the posix CPU timer code to
prevent that the tick dependency for NOHZ full is kept alive for no
reason.
- Avoid expensive double reprogramming of the clockevent device in
hrtimer_start_range_ns().
- Avoid pointless SMP function calls when the clock was set to avoid
disturbing CPUs which do not have any affected timers queued.
- Make the clocksource watchdog test work correctly when CONFIG_HZ is
less than 100.
Drivers:
- Prefer the ARM architected timer over the Exynos timer which is way
more expensive to access.
- Add device tree bindings for new Ingenic SoCs
- The usual improvements and cleanups all over the place

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
