Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The timekeeping and timers departement provides:

   - Time namespace support:

     If a container migrates from one host to another then it expects
     that clocks based on MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME are not subject to
     disruption. Due to different boot time and non-suspended runtime
     these clocks can differ significantly on two hosts, in the worst
     case time goes backwards which is a violation of the POSIX
     requirements.

     The time namespace addresses this problem. It allows to set offsets
     for clock MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME once after creation and before
     tasks are associated with the namespace. These offsets are taken
     into account by timers and timekeeping including the VDSO.

     Offsets for wall clock based clocks (REALTIME/TAI) are not provided
     by this mechanism. While in theory possible, the overhead and code
     complexity would...
