Yeah, so I'm just going to NAK this until things are improved:
NAKed-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
it's not like we are overly bored in timekeeping and need the extra complexity as
much as possible.
Proper, comprehensive, proactive technical description is needed, with proper
changelogs, not just half-baked notes. If all that is fixed I'll lift my NAK.
Thanks,
Ingo
