Linus Torvalds 2f0f6503e3 Merge branch 'x86-timers-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A rather large series consolidating the HPET code, which was triggered
  by the attempt to bolt HPET NMI watchdog support on to the existing
  maze with the usual duct tape and super glue approach.

  This mainly removes two separate partially redundant storage layers
  and consolidates them into a single one which provides a consistent
  view of the different HPET channels and their usage and allows to
  integrate HPET NMI watchdog support (if it turns out to be feasible)
  in a non intrusive way"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
