[PATCH 4.18 020/350] ACPI / OSL: Use jiffies as the time bassis for acpi_os_get_timer()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Nov 11 2018 - 17:29:45 EST


4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx>

commit 83b2348e2755db48fa8f40fdb791f366fabc0ba0 upstream.

Since acpi_os_get_timer() may be called after the timer subsystem has
been suspended, use the jiffies counter instead of ktime_get(). This
patch avoids that the following warning is reported during hibernation:
