By default, trace_clock_local() call the sched_clock() to get timestamp,
in x86, there is a tsc(64bit) based sched_clock(), but in MIPS, the
sched_clock() is jiffies based, which can not give enough
precision(about 10ms with 1000 HZ). so, we need to implement a higher
precision version for MIPS.
in MIPS, there is a tsc like clock counter. based on it, we can
implement a new trace_clock_local(), but because the clock counter is
only 32bit long, we need to handle rollover for it. fortunately, there
a high-level abstraction(cyclecounter) of this action implemented in
include/linux/clocksource.h, which helps to handle the details behind,
we just use it!
