[PATCH] hrtimers: cleanup locking
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Improve kernel/hrtimers.c locking: use a per-CPU base with a lock to control
locking of all clocks belonging to a CPU.  This simplifies code that needs to
lock all clocks at once.  This makes life easier for high-res timers and
dyntick.

No functional changes.
