time: remove the timecompare code.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This patch removes the timecompare code from the kernel. The top five
reasons to do this are:

1. There are no more users of this code.
2. The original idea was a bit weak.
3. The original author has disappeared.
4. The code was not general purpose but tuned to a particular hardware,
5. There are better ways to accomplish clock synchronization.
