this pull request contains a set of fixes for tip/timers/urgent:
- Prevent ftrace recursion by adding the 'notrace' attribute to the
sched_clock read callback (Jisheng Zhang).
- Fix multiple shutdown call issue (Magnus Damm).
Beside that, the commit fc686d0037d782c994e338ecb01bfef8bbafff9f:
"clockevents/drivers/mtk: Fix spurious interrupt leading to crash"
is merged in tip/timers/core but it is needed also as a fix for 4.3. This pull
request does not contain this fix in order to prevent a conflict when merging
tip/timers/urgent into tip/timers/core.
How shall I backport this fix from 'core' to 'urgent' without bringing a
conflict when you will merge both branches ?
The simplest way is to just do nothing and when that commit hits linus
tree during the merge window, ask the stable folks to pick it up.
