If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please
reply to this email.

Subject: timekeeping: Fix CLOCK_TAI timer/nanosleep delays
commit 04005f6011e3b504cd4d791d9769f7cb9a3b2eae upstream.
A think-o in the calculation of the monotonic -> tai time offset
results in CLOCK_TAI timers and nanosleeps to expire late (the
latency is ~2x the tai offset).
Fix this by adding the tai offset from the realtime offset instead
of subtracting.
