So there were two conflicts: one caused by the VFS evil rebase, which
caused a duplication of two functions within timekeeping.c.
The other conflict was an interaction with the locking tree due to
overlapping changes, which I resolved in tip:core/merge a couple of
weeks ago for -next:
commit 8446247e3ddaf3b173ef96131793bab3f567bd96

Merge branch 'locking/core' into core/merge, to resolve conflict
Conflicts:
kernel/time/timekeeping.c

AFAICT we resolved it in the same way, the only difference is that
Linus added one more newline for readability.
So we are all good!
Thanks,
Ingo
