sched/clock: Provide better clock continuity

When switching between the unstable and stable variants it is
currently possible that clock discontinuities occur.

And while these will mostly be 'small', attempt to do better.

As observed on my IVB-EP, the sched_clock() is ~1.5s ahead of the
ktime_get_ns() based timeline at the point of switchover
(sched_clock_init_late()) after SMP bringup.

Equally, when the TSC is later found to be unstable -- typically
because SMM tries to hide its SMI latencies by mucking with the TSC --
we want to avoid large jumps.

Since the clocksource watchdog reports the issue after the fact we
cannot exactly fix up time, but since SMI latencies are typically
small (~10ns range), the discontinuity is mainly due to drift between
sched_clock() and ktime_get_ns() (which on my desktop is ~79s over
24days).

I dislike this patch because it adds overhead to the good case in
favour of dealing with badness. But given the widespread failure of
TSC stability this is worth it.

Note that in case the TSC makes drastic jumps after SMP bringup we're
still hosed. There's just not much we can do in that case without
stupid overhead.

If we were to somehow expose tsc_clocksource_reliable (which is hard
because this code is also used on ia64 and parisc) we could avoid some
of the newly introduced overhead.
