This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch:
int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags);
int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags,
const struct itimerspec *utmr,
struct itimerspec *otmr);
int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr);
The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid"
parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.
The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally
retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not
NULL).
The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit
is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time.
The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or
{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.
Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are
supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to
exercise the new timerfd APIs:

When the CPLBs get a miss, we do:
- find a victim in the HW table
- remove the victim
- find the replacement in the software table
- put it into the HW table.
If we can't find a replacement in the software table, we accidently
leave a duplicate in the HW table. This patch ensures that duplicate
is marked as not valid.
What we should do is find the replacement in the software table, before
we find a victim in the HW table - but its too late in the release cycle
to do that much restructuring of this code.
Rather that duplicate code, connect Hardware Errors (irq5) into trap_c,
so user space processes get killed properly.
The rest of irq_panic() can be moved into traps.c (later)
There is still a small corner case that causes problems when a
pheriperal interrupt goes off a single cycle before a user space
hardware error. This causes a kernel panic, rather than the user
space process being killed.
But, this checkin makes things work in 99.9% of the cases, and is a vast
improvement from what is there today (which fails 100% of the time).

force irq_flags into the .data section by initializing it to
the hardware masks that cannot be disabled. this way if we
use irq enable/disable functions before the .bss has been
zeroed out (as does our l1 relocate/dma functions), we dont
hit a problem where bss contains bogus crap.

There is no reason why the .prepare() and .finish() methods in 'struct
platform_suspend_ops' should take any arguments, since architectures don't use
these methods' argument in any practically meaningful way (ie. either the
target system sleep state is conveyed to the platform by .set_target(), or
there is only one suspend state supported and it is indicated to the PM core
by .valid(), or .prepare() and .finish() aren't defined at all). There also
is no reason why .finish() should return any result.

The name of 'struct pm_ops' suggests that it is related to the power
management in general, but in fact it is only related to suspend. Moreover,
its name should indicate what this structure is used for, so it seems
reasonable to change it to 'struct platform_suspend_ops'. In that case, the
name of the global variable of this type used by the PM core and the names of
related functions should be changed accordingly.

Move the definition of 'struct pm_ops' and related functions from <linux/pm.h>
to <linux/suspend.h> .
There are, at least, the following reasons to do that:
* 'struct pm_ops' is specifically related to suspend and not to the power
management in general.
* As long as 'struct pm_ops' is defined in <linux/pm.h>, any modification of it
causes the entire kernel to be recompiled, which is unnecessary and annoying.
* Some suspend-related features are already defined in <linux/suspend.h>, so it
is logical to move the definition of 'struct pm_ops' into there.
* 'struct hibernation_ops', being the hibernation-related counterpart of
'struct pm_ops', is defined in <linux/suspend.h> .

revise anomaly handling by basing things on the compiler not the kconfig defines,
so the header is stable and usable outside of the kernel. This also allows us to
move some code from preprocessing to compiling (gcc culls dead code)
which should help with code quality (readability, catch minor bugs, etc...).
