[RFC] drm/i915: Add sysfs entry for reading GPU Timestamp

[Michał Winiarski <michal.winiarski@xxxxxxxxx>]

Reading timestamp register using I915_READ64 returns incorrect value.
Unfortunately, that's how I915_REG_READ ioctl is handling it on x86_64,
resulting in different counter size (we can only get 32 usable bits on
x86_64 vs 36 bits on x86).
Propose new sysfs interface for accessing full 36 bits of timestamp in
architecture independent way (using two consecutive reads).
