Subject: [PATCH v2 rcu 1/7] refscale: Add measurement of clock readout

This commit adds a "clock" type to refscale, which checks the performance
of ktime_get_real_fast_ns().  Use the "clocksource=" kernel boot parameter
to select the underlying clock source.

[ paulmck: Work around compiler false positive per kernel test robot. ]
