In testing some recent timekeeping changes, I found some problem when changing clocksources.
These two patches close races at clocksource switch time. One I sent out earlier, and have reworked to integrate Thomas' comments.
These two patches, along with Thomas' recent cleanup patches ontop can be found here: git://git.linaro.org/people/jstultz/linux.git fortglx/3.4/time
