Merge branch 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer fixes from Ingo Molnar: "Fix four timer locking races: two were noticed by Linus while reviewing the code while chasing for a corruption bug, and two from fixing spurious USB timeouts" * 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: timers: Prevent base clock corruption when forwarding timers: Prevent base clock rewind when forwarding clock timers: Lock base for same bucket optimization timers: Plug locking race vs. timer migration
