Merge tag 'timers-urgent-2020-04-19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull time namespace fix from Thomas Gleixner: "An update for the proc interface of time namespaces: Use symbolic names instead of clockid numbers. The usability nuisance of numbers was noticed by Michael when polishing the man page" * tag 'timers-urgent-2020-04-19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: proc, time/namespace: Show clock symbolic names in /proc/pid/timens_offsets
