Subject[PATCH 2/2] time: remove xtime_cache
From
Date
With the prior logarithmic time accumulation patch, xtime will now
always be within one "tick" of the current time, instead of possibly
half a second off.

This removes the need for the xtime_cache value, which always stored the
time at the last interrupt, so this patch cleans that up removing the
xtime_cache related code.

This is a bit simpler, but still could use some wider testing.

Any comments or feedback would be appreciated!

thanks
