[PATCH] time interpolator: Fix settimeofday inaccuracy
settimeofday will set the time a little bit too early on systems using time interpolation since it subtracts the current interpolator offset from the time. This used to be necessary with the code in 2.6.9 and earlier but the new code resets the time interpolator after setting the time. Thus the time is set too early and gettimeofday will return a time slightly before the time specified with settimeofday if invoked immeditely after settimeofday. This removes the obsolete subtraction of the time interpolator offset and makes settimeofday set the time accurately.
