Maybe the arch maintainers will complain that the corresponding
new heartbeat code is not put in place in the same patch, but I
think the change is so much overdue that I don't see why they
can't do that themselves if they have interest in it.

BTW: m68k has the same kind of luggage, in the middle of it
timekeeping code:
arch/m68k/kernel/time.c
