Thanks so much for sending this. One detail I'm curious about is that these kernels from the Bug messages seem to be v3.6-rc1 or earlier.
Ingo had a fix 1d17d17484d40f2d5b35c79518597a2b25296996 ("time: Fix adjustment cleanup bug in timekeeping_adjust") that landed in 3.6-rc2
Has this issue actually been seen on a 3.6-rc2+ kernel? thanks -john -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
