[PATCH v6 5/9] Add timekeeping snapshot code capturing system time and counter

From: Christopher S. Hall
Date: Wed Jan 13 2016 - 14:18:49 EST


In the current timekeeping code there isn't any interface to
atomically capture the current relationship between the system counter
and system time. ktime_get_snapshot() returns this triple (counter,
monotonic raw, realtime) in the system_time_snapshot struct.
