Linux kernel source tree
The call to __iter_div_u64_rem() in vdso_time_update_aux() is a wrapper
around subtraction. It cannot be used to divide large numbers, as that
introduces long, computationally expensive delays. A regular u64 division
is also not possible in the timekeeper update path as it can be too slow.
Instead of splitting the ktime_t offset into into second and subsecond
components during the timekeeper update fast-path, do it together with the
adjustment of tk->offs_aux in the slow-path. Equivalent to the handling of
offs_boot and monotonic_to_boot.
Reuse the storage of monotonic_to_boot for the new field, as it is not used
by auxiliary timekeepers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
