Merge tag 'timers-core-2026-06-13' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the time/timer core subsystem:
- Harden the user space controllable hrtimer interfaces further to
protect against unpriviledged DoS attempts by arming timers in the
past.
- Add per-capacity hierarchies to the timer migration code to prevent
timer migration accross different capacity domains. This code has
been disabled last minute as there is a pathological problem with
SoCs which advertise a larger number of capacity domains. The
problem is under investigation and the code won't be active before
v7.3, but that turned out to be less intrusive than a full revert
as it preserves the preparatory steps and allows people to work on
the final resolution
- Export time namespace functionality as a recent user can be built
as a module.
- Initialize the jiffies clocksource before using it. The recent
hardening against time moving backward requires that the related
members of struct clocksource have been initialized, otherwise it
clamps the readout to 0, which makes time stand sill and causes
boot delays.
- Fix a more than twenty year old PID reference count leak in an
error path of the POSIX CPU timer code.
- The usual small fixes, improvements and cleanups all over the
place"
