[PATCH 14/23] clocksource: increase initcall priority

[Daniel Walker <dwalker@mvista.com>]

Normal systems often have almost everything registered in
device_initcall() . Most drivers are registered there, and usually if
people add code that needs an initcall they will either use
device_initcall() or module_init() which both result in the same
initcall..

When John created the clocksource interface he did what most people
would do , and he made the clocksource registration happen in  
device_initcall with most everything else .. The effect of doing this
was the addition of the following code,

/* clocksource_done_booting - Called near the end of bootup
 *
 * Hack to avoid lots of clocksource churn at boot time
 */
static int __init clocksource_done_booting(void)
{
        finished_booting = 1;
        return 0;
}

late_initcall(clocksource_done_booting);

This is one of two initcalls in the clocksource interface , the other
one is device_initcall(init_clocksource_sysfs); ..

If I leave the clocksource initcall alone then anything that uses a
clocksource in the future would need at least one late_initcall().
Since the clocksources aren't all fully register until after 
device_initcall. 

The reason behind changing that is because it doesn't fit the usually
development flow of initialization functions which , as I said earlier,
almost always end up into device_initcall .

This change certainly isn't mandatory . I feel it would reduce the
likely hood of developers that use the clocksource interface from adding
multiple initcalls (one late_initcall, and one device_initcall). It also
better fits developers tendencies to put almost everything into
device_initcall() ..

In addition,

This patch removes a small amount of code in time keeping which existed to
detect the end of the initcall sequence then selected a clock.

As a note, arm and mips both register their clocksources during time_init()
instead of using initcalls.
