I think I should take these patches for 3.18. We do not create users
yet, but it makes it easier for submaintaners to apply stuff which you
convert. And it lets me have the whole core lot together with other
changes in that area. I create a seperate branch which you can pull
from.

I like that one. Moving all the time interfaces to a ktime_ prefix and
let the default implementation as CLOCK_MONOTONIC and the others with
the added '_real', '_boot' ... describe their CLOCK_WHATEVER property
makes it pretty clear.
