Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 088/177] s390/time: ensure get_clock_monotonic() returns monotonic values

From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@...ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit 011620688a71f2f1fe9901dbc2479a7c01053196 ]

The current implementation of get_clock_monotonic() leaves it up to
the caller to call the function with preemption disabled. The only
core kernel caller (sched_clock) however does not disable preemption.

In order to make sure that all callers of this function see monotonic
values handle disabling preemption within the function itself.
