Merge branch 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A pile of fixes for long standing issues with the timer wheel and the
NOHZ code:
- Prevent timer base confusion accross the nohz switch, which can
cause unlocked access and data corruption
- Reinitialize the stale base clock on cpu hotplug to prevent subtle
side effects including rollovers on 32bit
- Prevent an interrupt storm when the timer softirq is already
pending caused by tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
- Move the timer start tracepoint to a place where it actually makes
sense
- Add documentation to timerqueue functions as they caused confusion
several times now"
* 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
timerqueue: Document return values of timerqueue_add/del()
timers: Invoke timer_start_debug() where it makes sense
nohz: Prevent a timer interrupt storm in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
timers: Reinitialize per cpu bases on hotplug
timers: Use deferrable base independent of base::nohz_active
