Miroslav Lichvar de4ea10ae6 timekeeping: Fix timex status validation for auxiliary clocks 
[ Upstream commit e48a869957 ]

The timekeeping_validate_timex() function validates the timex status
of an auxiliary system clock even when the status is not to be changed,
which causes unexpected errors for applications that make read-only
clock_adjtime() calls, or set some other timex fields, but without
clearing the status field.

Do the AUX-specific status validation only when the modes field contains
ADJ_STATUS, i.e. the application is actually trying to change the
status. This makes the AUX-specific clock_adjtime() behavior consistent
with CLOCK_REALTIME.

Fixes: 4eca49d0b6 ("timekeeping: Prepare do_adtimex() for auxiliary clocks")

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 reStructuredText 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.
