Merge tag 'timers-core-2022-01-13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Updates for the time(r) subsystem:

  Core:

   - Make the clocksource watchdog more robust by better validation
     checks of the measurement.

  Drivers:

   - New drivers for MStar and SSD20xd SOCs

   - The usual cleanups and improvements all over the place"
