clockevents_increase_min_delta() calls printk() from under
hrtimer_bases.lock. That causes lock inversion on scheduler locks because
printk() can call into the scheduler. Lockdep puts it as:

which lock already depends on the new lock.

Fix the problem by using printk_deferred() which does not call into the
scheduler.

<title>sched_clock: Avoid corrupting hrtimer tree during suspend</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f723aa1817dd8f4fe005aab52ba70c8ab0ef9457</id>
<content type='text'>
During suspend we call sched_clock_poll() to update the epoch and
accumulated time and reprogram the sched_clock_timer to fire
before the next wrap-around time. Unfortunately,
sched_clock_poll() doesn't restart the timer, instead it relies
on the hrtimer layer to do that and during suspend we aren't
calling that function from the hrtimer layer. Instead, we're
reprogramming the expires time while the hrtimer is enqueued,
which can cause the hrtimer tree to be corrupted. Furthermore, we
restart the timer during suspend but we update the epoch during
resume which seems counter-intuitive.

Let's fix this by saving the accumulated state and canceling the
timer during suspend. On resume we can update the epoch and
restart the timer similar to what we would do if we were starting
the clock for the first time.

Fixes: a08ca5d1089d "sched_clock: Use an hrtimer instead of timer"

<title>alarmtimer: Fix bug where relative alarm timers were treated as absolute</title>

<id>urn:sha1:16927776ae757d0d132bdbfabbfe2c498342bd59</id>
<content type='text'>
Sharvil noticed with the posix timer_settime interface, using the
CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM or CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM clockid, if the users
tried to specify a relative time timer, it would incorrectly be
treated as absolute regardless of the state of the flags argument.

This patch corrects this, properly checking the absolute/relative flag,
as well as adds further error checking that no invalid flag bits are set.

Merge misc updates from Andrew Morton:

 - a few fixes for 3.16.  Cc'ed to stable so they'll get there somehow.

 - various misc fixes and cleanups

 - most of the ocfs2 queue.  Review is slow...

 - most of MM.  The MM queue is pretty huge this time, but not much in
   the way of feature work.

 - some tweaks under kernel/

 - printk maintenance work

 - updates to lib/

 - checkpatch updates

 - tweaks to init/

<title>timekeeping: use printk_deferred when holding timekeeping seqlock</title>

<content type='text'>
Jiri Bohac pointed out that there are rare but potential deadlock
possibilities when calling printk while holding the timekeeping
seqlock.

This is due to printk() triggering console sem wakeup, which can
cause scheduling code to trigger hrtimers which may try to read
the time.

Specifically, as Jiri pointed out, that path is:
  printk
    vprintk_emit
      console_unlock
        up(&amp;console_sem)
          __up
	    wake_up_process
	      try_to_wake_up
	        ttwu_do_activate
		  ttwu_activate
		    activate_task
		      enqueue_task
		        enqueue_task_fair
			  hrtick_update
			    hrtick_start_fair
			      hrtick_start_fair
			        get_time
				  ktime_get
				    --&gt; endless loop on
				    read_seqcount_retry(&amp;timekeeper_seq, ...)

This patch tries to avoid this issue by using printk_deferred (previously
named printk_sched) which should defer printing via a irq_work_queue.

<title>ntp: Make is_error_status() use its argument</title>

<content type='text'>
is_error_status() is an inline function always called with the
global time_status as an argument, so there's zero functional
difference with this change, but the non-CONFIG_NTP_PPS version
uses the passed-in argument, while the CONFIG_NTP_PPS one ignores
its argument and uses the global.

Looks like is_error_status was refactored out, but someone forgot
to change the logic to check the local argument value.

Thus this patch makes it use the argument always; shorter variable
names are good.

Remove the 32-bit only setup_sched_clock() API now that all users
have been converted to the 64-bit friendly sched_clock_register().

<title>tick-sched: Check tick_nohz_enabled in tick_nohz_switch_to_nohz()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:27630532ef5ead28b98cfe28d8f95222ef91c2b7</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit d689fe222 (NOHZ: Check for nohz active instead of nohz
enabled) the tick_nohz_switch_to_nohz() function returns because it
checks for the tick_nohz_active flag. This can't be set, because the
function itself sets it.

Undo the change in tick_nohz_switch_to_nohz().

<title>tick-sched: Don't call update_wall_time() when delta is lesser than tick_period</title>

<content type='text'>
In tick_do_update_jiffies64() we are processing ticks only if delta is
greater than tick_period. This is what we are supposed to do here and
it broke a bit with this patch:

commit 47a1b796 (tick/timekeeping: Call update_wall_time outside the
jiffies lock)

With above patch, we might end up calling update_wall_time() even if
delta is found to be smaller that tick_period. Fix this by returning
when the delta is less than tick period.

[ tglx: Made it a 3 liner and massaged changelog ]
