Sorry for the collision here!

One word of warning:  Truncating the sub-ns base like this can cause 
small single ns inconsistencies from the vsyscalls.

So either use GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD to enable the 1ns generic 
rounding-up code, or rework the vsyscall code to use the sub-ns 
granularity as done in 650ea02475106e8d6bdf561896d2ffe0d1c0ebb4 for 
x86_64.  I hope to drop the _OLD config eventually, so this will need to 
be done at some point.

thanks
