timers-urgent-for-linus
- timekeeping: Cure a subtle drift issue on GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD
- nohz: Make CONFIG_NO_HZ=n and nohz=off command line option behave
the same way. Fixes a long standing load accounting wreckage.
- clocksource/ARM: Kconfig update to avoid ARM=n wreckage
- clocksource/ARM: Fixlets for the AT91 and SH clocksource/clockevents
- Trivial documentation update and kzalloc conversion from akpms pile
Thanks,
tglx
