[PATCH v8 2/8] time: Add timekeeping snapshot code capturing system time and counter

Christopher S. Hall
2016-02-22T11:15:20Z

In the current timekeeping code there isn't any interface to
atomically capture the current relationship between the system counter
and system time. ktime_get_snapshot() returns this triple (counter,
monotonic raw, realtime) in the system_time_snapshot struct.
