Currently, clocksource_register() and __clocksource_register_scale()
functions always return 0, it's pointless, make functions void.
And remove the dead code that check the clocksource_register_hz()
return value.

This doesn't make sense - you are still returning a value on a function
declared void, and the return is now from a function that doesn't return
anything either ?!?!
Doesn't this throw a compile-time warning??
