4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: John Stultz <john.stultz@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 27727df240c7cc84f2ba6047c6f18d5addfd25ef upstream. When I added some extra sanity checking in timekeeping_get_ns() under CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING, I missed that the NMI safe __ktime_get_fast_ns() method was using timekeeping_get_ns(). Thus the locking added to the debug checks broke the NMI-safety of __ktime_get_fast_ns(). This patch open-codes the timekeeping_get_ns() logic for __ktime_get_fast_ns(), so can avoid any deadlocks in NMI.
