    Hey Baolin,
    If you get an ack, like you did from James, please include it in the
    commit message of following submissions

    Serge, Kees: Any objection to this patch going in via the
    tip/timers/core tree with the dependent settimeofday64 call?

    Otherwise I'll queue this up for testing.

    thanks
    -john
