Steven Rostedt (Google) f03f2abce4 ring-buffer: Have 32 bit time stamps use all 64 bits 
When the new logic was made to handle deltas of events from interrupts
that interrupted other events, it required 64 bit local atomics.
Unfortunately, 64 bit local atomics are expensive on 32 bit architectures.
Thus, commit 10464b4aa6 ("ring-buffer: Add rb_time_t 64 bit operations
for speeding up 32 bit") created a type of seq lock timer for 32 bits.
It used two 32 bit local atomics, but required 2 bits from them each for
synchronization, making it only 60 bits.

Add a new "msb" field to hold the extra 4 bits that are cut off.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
