Subject: [PATCH v5] PM / sleep: measure the time of filesystem syncing

This patch gives the reader an intuitive metric of the time cost by
the kernel issuing a filesystem sync during system sleep; although
developer can guess by the timestamp of next log or enable the ftrace
power event for manual calculation, this manner is easier to read and
benefits the automatic script.

v2: simplify the variables, apply the simplest form of ktime API.
v3: reduce conditional compilation, rectify profiling in better syntax
v4: avoid interposition, profile on hibernation, rectify printk format
v5: introduce sync helper shared by suspend, hibernate, and snapshot
