Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Two small fixes for the time(r) subsystem:

   - Handle a subtle race between the clocksource watchdog and a
     concurrent clocksource watchdog stop/start sequence correctly to
     prevent a timer double add bug.

   - Fix the file path for the core time namespace file"
