Pull timer fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Misc timer fixes:

   - fix a potential use-after-free bug in posix timers

   - correct a prototype

   - address a build warning"

* tag 'timers-urgent-2022-08-13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  posix-cpu-timers: Cleanup CPU timers before freeing them during exec
  time: Correct the prototype of ns_to_kernel_old_timeval and ns_to_timespec64
  posix-timers: Make do_clock_gettime() static
