A new syscall is introduced that allows tuning of a POSIX clock. The
syscall is implemented for four architectures: arm, blackfin, powerpc,
and x86.

The new syscall, clock_adjtime, takes two parameters, the clock ID,
and a pointer to a struct timex. The semantics of the timex struct
have been expanded by one additional mode flag, which allows an
absolute offset correction. When specificied, the clock offset is
immediately corrected by adding the given time value to the current
time value.

Any reason why you CC'ed device-tree discuss ?

This list is getting way too much unrelated stuff, which I find
annoying, it would be nice if we were all a bit more careful here with
our CC lists.

Sorry, I only added device-tree because some one asked me to do so.

I'll leave it off next time.
