Recently a kernel side NTP bug was fixed via the following commit:
2619d7e9c9 ("time: Fix timekeeping_freqadjust()'s incorrect use of abs() instead of abs64()")
When the bug was reported it was difficult to detect, except by
tweaking the adjtimex tick value, and noticing how quickly the
adjustment took:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/9/1/488
Thus this patch introduces a new test which manipulates the
adjtimex tick value and validates that the results are what we
expect.

This patch splits rtc.txt into two separate files, one for the
documentation itself, and the other for the rtctest.c file. The rtctest
file is moved into the kernel tools/testing/selftests/timers directory.
This will make automated testing easier. Note that the only difference in
the rtc.txt file is that the location of the rtctest.c file has changed.

Change the timers Makefile to make use of shared run and install logic
in lib.mk. Destructive tests are installed but not run by default.
Add a new variable, TEST_PROGS_EXTENDED, which is a list of extra
programs to install, but which are not run by the default run_tests
logic.

Adds the set-2038 test which sets the time to near-edge cases
like the start and end of the 32 bit epoch and checks that
time behaves properly. There is also a dangerous mode, which
lets the clock roll over past 2038 on 32bit systems, which
on some older kernels will cause system hangs.

This adds my clock skew estimation test from the timetest suite.
It measures the drift between CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW
and compares it with the current frequency value from adjtimex.
It sometimes can trigger false failures when ntpd isn't in a
steady state, but its a useful too when doing adjtimex testing.

Add some initial basic tests on a few posix timers interface such as
setitimer() and timer_settime().
These simply check that expiration happens in a reasonable timeframe after
expected elapsed clock time (user time, user + system time, real time,
...).
This is helpful for finding basic breakages while hacking
on this subsystem.
