clocksource: Improve GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS dependency
We regularly run into build errors when a clocksource driver selects CONFIG_TIMER_OF while CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS is disabled: In file included from drivers/clocksource/timer-of.c:25:0: drivers/clocksource/timer-of.h:35:28: error: field 'clkevt' has incomplete type At the moment, three drivers can show this behavior: ARMV7M_SYSTICK, CLKSRC_ST_LPC and CLKSRC_NPS. We could add further dependencies as we did many times, but I have looked a little bit more at what architectures are left that don't use GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, and this shows that there is a better solution. On arch/frv and arch/ia64, we never select CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS and we also don't use ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET, which would block the clocksource Kconfig menu. On m68k, some platforms use CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, some use ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET, and some use neither of them. The good news is that there is no configuration that does not set CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS but that wants to enable any of the Kconfig symbols in the menu, so we can simply replace the dependency with the stricter one. While in theory one could have a clocksource driver without the clockevent infrastructure, this seems unlikely to be relevant in the future any more. We can probably drop some of the other dependencies as well now, e.g. there should generally be no reason to depend on CONFIG_ARM unless the driver uses architecture specific assembly.
