Subject[GIT pull] timer updates for 5.0
From
Date
Linus,

please pull the latest timers-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git timers-urgent-for-linus

A single regression fix to address the unintended breakage of posix cpu
timers. This is caused by a new sanity check in the common code, which
fails for posix cpu timers under certain conditions because the posix cpu
timer code never updates the variable which is checked.

Thanks,

tglx
