From: Greg KH on
2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king(a)canonical.com>

commit 8c2eb4805d422bdbf60ba00ff233c794d23c3c00 upstream.

Ensure additions on touch_ts do not overflow. This can occur
when the top 32 bits of the TSC reach 0xffffffff causing
additions to touch_ts to overflow and this in turn generates
spurious softlockup warnings.
