PeterZ reported that we'd fail to mark the TSC unstable when the
clocksource watchdog finds it unsuitable.

Allow a clocksource to run a custom action when its being marked
unstable and hook up the TSC unstable code.

There is no point in having an extra type for extra confusion. u64 is
unambiguous.

The "cycles" argument should not be an absolute clocksource cycle
value, as the implementation's arithmetic will overflow relatively
easily with wide (64 bit) clocksource counters.

For performance, the implementation is simple and fast, since the
function is intended for only relatively small delta values of
clocksource cycles.

 also included rewording suggestion by Ingo]

All the clocksource drivers's init function are now converted to return
an error code. CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE is no longer used as well as the
clksrc-of table.

Let's convert back the names:
 - CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE_RET =&gt; CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE
 - clksrc-of-ret              =&gt; clksrc-of

<title>clocksource/drivers/clksrc-probe: Introduce init functions with return code</title>

<id>b7c4db861683af5fc50ac3cb3751cf847d765211</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the clksrc-probe is not able to handle any error from the init
functions. There are different issues with the current code:
 - the code is duplicated in the init functions by writing error
 - every driver tends to panic in its own init function
 - counting the number of clocksources is not reliable

This patch adds another table to store the functions returning an error.
The table is temporary while we convert all the drivers to return an error
and will disappear.

The clocksource_khz2mult() and clocksource_hz2mult() share similar
code wihch calculates a mult from the given frequency. Both implementations
in differ only in value of a frequency. This patch introduces the
clocksource_freq2mult() helper with generic implementation of
mult calculation to prevent code duplication.

We cache all hotpath members of a clocksource in the time keeper
core. So there is no requirement in general to cache line align struct
clocksource. Remove the enforces alignment.

That allows users which need to wrap struct clocksource into their own
struct to align the struct without getting extra padding.

Seeing the 'of' characters in a symbol that is being called from
ACPI seems to freak out people. So let's do a bit of pointless
renaming so that these folks do feel at home.

use ACPI probing, just like its DT counterpart.
