Subject: hrtimers -- high-resolution clock subsystem

Hello,

,----[ Documentation/hrtimers.txt]--
| We used the high-resolution clock subsystem ontop of hrtimers to

`----

I didn't find any "high-resolution clock subsystem" in the internet as
patch. Can you give me the point or did I got this sentence wrong?
Thanks.

BTW: There's a typo in this text, patch below. And I hope the patch is
correct. Or would an extra email for this be better?

Fixed typo in hrtimers documentation.

Ah, sorry, I saw this site but I thought the patches are outdated
because new kernels already include hrtimers. I was wrong and I
applied the patches and it works. :)
