[patch V2 10/26] timekeeping: Prepare timekeeping_update_from_shadow()

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Mon May 19 2025 - 04:37:43 EST


From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Don't invoke the VDSO and paravirt updates when utilized for auxiliary
clocks. This is a temporary workaround until the VDSO and paravirt
interfaces have been worked out.
