Linus Torvalds 80a76c60e5 Updates for timekeeping and PTP core:
The cross-timestamp mechanism which allows to correlate hardware
   clocks uses clocksource pointers for describing the correlation.
 
   That's suboptimal as drivers need to obtain the pointer, which requires
   needless exports and exposing internals.
 
   This can be completely avoided by assigning clocksource IDs and using
   them for describing the correlated clock source.
 
   This update adds clocksource IDs to all clocksources in the tree which
   can be exposed to this mechanism and removes the pointer and now needless
   exports.
 
   This is separate from the timer core changes as it was provided to the
   PTP folks to build further changes on top.
 
   A related improvement for the core and the correlation handling has not
   made it this time, but is expected to get ready for the next round.

 "Updates for timekeeping and PTP core.

  The cross-timestamp mechanism which allows to correlate hardware

  That's suboptimal as drivers need to obtain the pointer, which
  requires needless exports and exposing internals. This can all be
  completely avoided by assigning clocksource IDs and using them for

  So this adds clocksource IDs to all clocksources in the tree which can
