Subject: [PATCH RESEND] time: Fix sleeptime injection for non-stop clocksource & persistent clock

Currently, for both non-stop clocksource and persistent clock
there is a corner case, when a driver failed to go suspend mode
rtc_resume() injects the sleeptime as timekeeping_rtc_skipresume()
returned 'false' due to which we can see mismatch in time between
system clock and other timers.

Success case:
                                         {sleeptime_injected=true}
rtc_suspend() => timekeeping_suspend() => timekeeping_resume() => 
  rtc_resume()

Failure case:
             {failure in sleep path} {sleeptime_injected=false}
rtc_suspend()          =>            rtc_resume()
