[PATCH 03/11] 2.6.32.x: timekeeping: Fix CLOCK_MONOTONIC inconsistency during leapsecond

From: John Stultz
Date: Tue Jul 17 2012 - 18:07:59 EST


From: John Stultz <john.stultz@xxxxxxxxxx>

This is a backport of fad0c66c4bb836d57a5f125ecd38bed653ca863a
which resolves a bug the previous commit.

Commit 6b43ae8a61 (ntp: Fix leap-second hrtimer livelock) broke the
leapsecond update of CLOCK_MONOTONIC. The missing leapsecond update to
wall_to_monotonic causes discontinuities in CLOCK_MONOTONIC.

Adjust wall_to_monotonic when NTP inserted a leapsecond.
