For multigrain timestamps, we must keep track of the latest timestamp
that has ever been handed out, and never hand out a coarse time below
that value.
Add a static singleton atomic64_t into timekeeper.c that we can use to
keep track of the latest fine-grained time ever handed out. This is
tracked as a monotonic ktime_t value to ensure that it isn't affected by
clock jumps.
Add two new public interfaces:
- ktime_get_coarse_real_ts64_mg() fills a timespec64 with the later of the
coarse-grained clock and the floor time
- ktime_get_real_ts64_mg() gets the fine-grained clock value, and tries
to swap it into the floor. A timespec64 is filled with the result.
Since the floor is global, we take great pains to avoid updating it
unless it's absolutely necessary. If we do the cmpxchg and find that the
value has been updated since we fetched it, then we discard the
fine-grained time that was fetched in favor of the recent update.
To maximize the window of this occurring when multiple tasks are racing
to update the floor, ktime_get_coarse_real_ts64_mg returns a cookie
value that represents the state of the floor tracking word, and
ktime_get_real_ts64_mg accepts a cookie value that it uses as the "old"
value when calling cmpxchg().
