Merge branch 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull timer fix from Thomas Glexiner:
"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"
