Shouldn't this be kernel/time/namespace.c so all that stuff is lumped
together. No strong opinion though.

Shouldn't this use kzalloc()? There are tons of members in that struct.

And you spare this one.

If you use kernel-doc style then please use te proper syntax

/*
* clone_time_ns - Clone a time namespace
* @old_ns: Namespace to clone
*
* Clone @old_ns and set the clone refcount to 1
*

Why is this a double get?

Isn't that one initialized already?

Inconsisten formatting. The above static initializers are nicely
tabular. This on not.
