Merge branch 'timers-for-linus' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip

* 'timers-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip:
  timers, init: Limit the number of per cpu calibration bootup messages
  posix-cpu-timers: optimize and document timer_create callback
  clockevents: Add missing include to pacify sparse
  x86: vmiclock: Fix printk format
  x86: Fix printk format due to variable type change
  sparc: fix printk for change of variable type
  clocksource/events: Fix fallout of generic code changes
  nohz: Allow 32-bit machines to sleep for more than 2.15 seconds
  nohz: Track last do_timer() cpu
  nohz: Prevent clocksource wrapping during idle
  nohz: Type cast printk argument
  mips: Use generic mult/shift factor calculation for clocks
  clocksource: Provide a generic mult/shift factor calculation
  clockevents: Use u32 for mult and shift factors
  nohz: Introduce arch_needs_cpu
  nohz: Reuse ktime in sub-functions of tick_check_idle.
  time: Remove xtime_cache
  time: Implement logarithmic time accumulation

+  * clocks_calc_mult_shift - calculate mult/shift factors for scaled math of clocks
+  * @mult:	pointer to mult variable
+  * @shift:	pointer to shift variable
+  * @from:	frequency to convert from
+  * @to:		frequency to convert to
+  * @minsec:	guaranteed runtime conversion range in seconds
+  *
+  * The function evaluates the shift/mult pair for the scaled math
+  * operations of clocksources and clockevents.
+  *
+  * @to and @from are frequency values in HZ. For clock sources @to is
+  * NSEC_PER_SEC == 1GHz and @from is the counter frequency. For clock
+  * event @to is the counter frequency and @from is NSEC_PER_SEC.
+  *
+  * The @minsec conversion range argument controls the time frame in
+  * seconds which must be covered by the runtime conversion with the
+  * calculated mult and shift factors. This guarantees that no 64bit
+  * overflow happens when the input value of the conversion is
+  * multiplied with the calculated mult factor. Larger ranges may
+  * reduce the conversion accuracy by chosing smaller mult and shift
+  * factors.
