Subject: [PATCH] trace: Stop compiling in trace_clock unconditionally

Commit 56449f437add737a1e5e1cb7e00f63ac8ead1938, in April 2009, made
trace_clock available unconditionally, since CONFIG_X86_DS used it too.
Commit faa4602e47690fb11221e00f9b9697c8dc0d4b19, in March 2010, removed
CONFIG_X86_DS, and now only CONFIG_RING_BUFFER (split out from
CONFIG_TRACING for general use) has a dependency on trace_clock.  So,
only compile in trace_clock with CONFIG_RING_BUFFER or CONFIG_TRACING
enabled.
