This introduces the clocksource management infrastructure. A
clocksource is a driver-like architecture generic abstraction of a
free-running counter. This code defines the clocksource structure, and
provides management code for registering, selecting, accessing and
scaling clocksources.
Additionally, this includes the trivial jiffies clocksource, a lowest
common denominator clocksource, provided mainly for use as an example.
