Subject: [PATCH v7 2/8] time: Add timekeeping snapshot code capturing system time and counter

In the current timekeeping code there isn't any interface to
atomically capture the current relationship between the system counter
and system time. ktime_get_snapshot() returns this triple (counter,
monotonic raw, realtime) in the system_time_snapshot struct.
