Subject: [PATCH 9/9] timer: Lower base clock forwarding threshold
Date: Tue,  7 Jul 2020 03:32:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200707013253.26770-10-frederic@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200707013253.26770-1-frederic@kernel.org>

There is nothing that prevents us from forwarding the base clock if
it's one jiffy off. This reason for this arbitrary limit is historical
and doesn't seem to stand anymore.
