Thanks. I think we should wait until the next -rc1 drops to apply the
patch for the next merge window. That will make it least likely to conflict
with other trees, and we can provide it on a stable branch should there
be clock providers going through other trees somewhere. Please
remind me if I forget.

This returns a negative int for unsigned long. Is that intentional?
