Next: [PATCH 00/11] -tip Timekeeping changes for 2.6.36
From: John Stultz on 13 Jul 2010 21:00
After accidentally misusing timespec_add_safe, I wanted to make sure
we don't accidently trip over that issue again, so I created a simple
timespec_add() function which we can use to replace the instances
of timespec_add_safe() that don't want the overflow detection.
