  time: ntp: make 64-bit constants more robust
  time: ntp: refactor do_adjtimex() some more
  time: ntp: refactor do_adjtimex()
  time: ntp: fix bug in ntp_update_offset() & do_adjtimex()
  time: ntp: micro-optimize ntp_update_offset()
  time: ntp: simplify ntp_update_offset_fll()
  time: ntp: refactor and clean up ntp_update_offset()
  time: ntp: refactor up ntp_update_frequency()
  time: ntp: clean up ntp_update_frequency()
  time: ntp: simplify the MAX_TICKADJ_SCALED definition
  time: ntp: simplify the second_overflow() code flow
  time: ntp: clean up kernel/time/ntp.c
  x86: hpet: stop HPET_COUNTER when programming periodic mode
  x86: hpet: provide separate functions to stop and start the counter
  x86: hpet: print HPET registers during setup (if hpet=verbose is used)
  time: apply NTP frequency/tick changes immediately
