Subject: [PATCH 4.9 014/165] s390/time: Fix clk type in get_tod_clock

From: Nathan Chancellor <natechancellor@...il.com>

commit 0f8a206df7c920150d2aa45574fba0ab7ff6be4f upstream.

        get_tod_clock_ext(clk);
                          ^~~

                                           ^

Change clk's type to just be char so that it matches what happens in
get_tod_clock_ext.
