Merge branch 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer update from Thomas Gleixner: "New defines for the compat time* types so they can be shared between 32bit and 64bit builds. Not used yet, but merging them now allows the actual conversions to be merged through different maintainer trees without dependencies We still have compat interfaces for 32bit on 64bit even with the new 2038 safe timespec/val variants because pointer size is different. And for the old style timespec/val interfaces we need yet another 'compat' interface for both 32bit native and 32bit on 64bit" * 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: y2038: Provide aliases for compat helpers
