Subject: [PATCH 4.19 024/361] ACPI / OSL: Use jiffies as the time bassis for acpi_os_get_timer()

4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@....org>

commit 83b2348e2755db48fa8f40fdb791f366fabc0ba0 upstream.

Since acpi_os_get_timer() may be called after the timer subsystem has
been suspended, use the jiffies counter instead of ktime_get(). This
patch avoids that the following warning is reported during hibernation:

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 612 at kernel/time/timekeeping.c:751 ktime_get+0x116/0x120
