Subject: [05/44] um: fix global timer issue when using CONFIG_NO_HZ
Date: Tue, 07 Dec 2010 16:04:04 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101208000640.013553991@clark.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101208003205.GA4286@kroah.com>

2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>

commit 482db6df1746c4fa7d64a2441d4cb2610249c679 upstream.

This fixes a issue which was introduced by fe2cc53e ("uml: track and make
up lost ticks").

timeval_to_ns() returns long long and not int.  Due to that UML's timer
did not work properlt and caused timer freezes.
