The persistent clock of some architectures (e.g. s390) have a
better granularity than seconds. To reduce the delta between the
host clock and the guest clock in a virtualized system change the 
read_persistent_clock function to return a struct timespec.

This replaces the MIPS-specific to_tm function with the generic
rtc_time_to_tm function.  The big difference between the two functions is
that rtc_time_to_tm uses epoch 70 while to_tm uses 1970, so the result of
rtc_time_to_tm needs to be fixed up.

    [PATCH] sched: implement cpu_clock(cpu) high-speed time source

broke the build of several MIPS platforms which were already using the
symbol cpu_clock for the own purposes.

Historically plat_mem_setup did the entire platform initialization.  This
was rather impractical because it meant plat_mem_setup had to get away
without any kind of memory allocator.  To keep old code from breaking
plat_setup was just renamed to plat_setup and a second platform
initialization hook for anything else was introduced.

Many RTC routines were not protected against each other, so there are
potential races, for example, ntp-update against /dev/rtc.  This patch
fixes them using rtc_lock.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
