[PATCH] Time precision, adjtime(x) vs. gettimeofday

From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>

The following will prevent adjtime from causing time regression.  It delays
starting the adjtime mechanism for one tick, and keeps gettimeofday inside
the window.

Only fixes i386, but changes to other arch would be similar.

Running a simple clock test program and playing with adjtime demonstrates
that this fixes the problem (and 2.6.0-test6 is broken).  But given the
fragile nature of the timer code, it should go through some more testing
before inclusion.
