All,
Currently ntp_adjtimex() checks the validity of a few arguments values
then takes the xtime_lock then checks the validity of more arguments
while it parses them. This separates the logic so we check the validity
of all arguments before aquiring the xtime lock. This greatly improves
the readability of the code.
Any comments or feedback would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
