From f0af911a9dec9de702645182c8d269449e24d24b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Torben Hohn Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2011 15:59:10 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] time: Provide xtime_update() xtime_update() takes xtime_lock write locked and calls do_timer(). Provided to replace the do_timer() calls in the architecture code.
