Pull x86 timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Early TSC based time stamping to allow better boot time analysis.

  This comes with a general cleanup of the TSC calibration code which
  grew warts and duct taping over the years and removes 250 lines of
  code. Initiated and mostly implemented by Pavel with help from various
  folks"

On arches with no persistent clock a message like this is printed during
boot:

[    0.000000] Persistent clock returned invalid value

The value is not invalid: Zero means that no persistent clock is available
and the absence of persistent clock should be quietly accepted.

<title>time: Introduce one suspend clocksource to compensate the suspend time</title>

<content type='text'>
On some hardware with multiple clocksources, we have coarse grained
clocksources that support the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag, but
which are less than ideal for timekeeping whereas other clocksources
can be better candidates but halt on suspend.

Currently, the timekeeping core only supports timing suspend using
CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP clocksources if that clocksource is the
current clocksource for timekeeping.

As a result, some architectures try to implement read_persistent_clock64()
using those non-stop clocksources, but isn't really ideal, which will
introduce more duplicate code. To fix this, provide logic to allow a
registered SUSPEND_NONSTOP clocksource, which isn't the current
clocksource, to be used to calculate the suspend time.

<title>time: Fix extra sleeptime injection when suspend fails</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, there exists a corner case assuming when there is
only one clocksource e.g RTC, and system failed to go to
suspend mode. While resume rtc_resume() injects the sleeptime
as timekeeping_rtc_skipresume() returned 'false' (default value
of sleeptime_injected) due to which we can see mismatch in
timestamps.

This issue can also come in a system where more than one
clocksource are present and very first suspend fails.

Success case:
------------
                                        {sleeptime_injected=false}
rtc_suspend() =&gt; timekeeping_suspend() =&gt; timekeeping_resume() =&gt;

(sleeptime injected)
 rtc_resume()

Failure case:
------------
         {failure in sleep path} {sleeptime_injected=false}
rtc_suspend()     =&gt;          rtc_resume()

{sleeptime injected again which was not required as the suspend failed}

Fix this by handling the boolean logic properly.

read_persistent_wall_and_boot_offset() is called during boot to read
both the persistent clock and also return the offset between the boot time
and the value of persistent clock.

Change the default boot_offset from zero to local_clock() so architectures,
that do not have a dedicated boot_clock but have early sched_clock(), such
as SPARCv9, x86, and possibly more will benefit from this change by getting
a better and more consistent estimate of the boot time without need for an
arch specific implementation.

<title>timekeeping: Replace read_boot_clock64() with read_persistent_wall_and_boot_offset()</title>

<content type='text'>
If architecture does not support exact boot time, it is challenging to
estimate boot time without having a reference to the current persistent
clock value. Yet, it cannot read the persistent clock time again, because
this may lead to math discrepancies with the caller of read_boot_clock64()
who have read the persistent clock at a different time.

This is why it is better to provide two values simultaneously: the
persistent clock value, and the boot time.

Replace read_boot_clock64() with:
read_persistent_wall_and_boot_offset(wall_time, boot_offset)

Where wall_time is returned by read_persistent_clock() And boot_offset is
wall_time - boot time, which defaults to 0.

<id>urn:sha1:b061c7a513afe14a68af41cec7c3476befc40e95</id>
<content type='text'>
When the NTP frequency is set directly from userspace using the
ADJ_FREQUENCY or ADJ_TICK timex mode, immediately update the
timekeeper's multiplier instead of waiting for the next tick.

This removes a hidden non-deterministic delay in setting of the
frequency and allows an extremely tight control of the system clock
with update rates close to or even exceeding the kernel HZ.

The update is limited to archs using modern timekeeping
(!ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET).
