Thomas Gleixner ca4c34037b timekeeping: Repair ktime_get_coarse*() granularity
commit e3ff9c3678 upstream.

Jason reported that the coarse ktime based time getters advance only once
per second and not once per tick as advertised.

The code reads only the monotonic base time, which advances once per
second. The nanoseconds are accumulated on every tick in xtime_nsec up to
a second and the regular time getters take this nanoseconds offset into
account, but the ktime_get_coarse*() implementation fails to do so.

Add the accumulated xtime_nsec value to the monotonic base time to get the
proper per tick advancing coarse tinme.

Fixes: b9ff604cff ("timekeeping: Add ktime_get_coarse_with_offset")

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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
