 "The timer departement delivers:

   - a regression fix for the NTP code along with a proper selftest
   - prevent a spurious timer interrupt in the NOHZ lowres code
   - a fix for user space interfaces returning the remaining time on
     architectures with CONFIG_TIME_LOW_RES=y
   - a few patches to fix COMPILE_TEST fallout"

* 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  tick/nohz: Set the correct expiry when switching to nohz/lowres mode
  clocksource: Fix dependencies for archs w/o HAS_IOMEM
  clocksource: Select CLKSRC_MMIO where needed
  tick/sched: Hide unused oneshot timer code
  kselftests: timers: Add adjtimex SETOFFSET validity tests
  ntp: Fix ADJ_SETOFFSET being used w/ ADJ_NANO

Several C programs fail to include the headers declaring all the
functions they call, resulting in warnings or errors.

After this, memfd_test.c is still missing some function declarations
but can't easily get them because of a conflict between
&lt;linux/fcntl.h&gt; and &lt;sys/fcntl.h&gt;.

Recently a kernel side NTP bug was fixed via the following commit:

  2619d7e9c92d ("time: Fix timekeeping_freqadjust()'s incorrect use of abs() instead of abs64()")

When the bug was reported it was difficult to detect, except by
tweaking the adjtimex tick value, and noticing how quickly the
adjustment took:

Thus this patch introduces a new test which manipulates the
adjtimex tick value and validates that the results are what we
expect.
