The patch titled uml: timer cleanups has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is uml-timer-cleanups.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: uml: timer cleanups From: Jeff Dike <jdike@xxxxxxxxxxx> set_interval returns an error instead of panicing if setitimer fails. Some of its callers now check the return. enable_timer is largely tt-mode-specific, so it is marked as such, and the only skas-mode caller is made to call set-interval instead. user_time_init was a no-value-added wrapper around set_interval, so it is gone. Since set_interval is now called from kernel code, callers no longer pass ITIMER_* to it. Instead, they pass a flag which is converted into ITIMER_REAL or ITIMER_VIRTUAL.
