Subject: [RFC PATCH V2 1/9] timekeeping: Expose the conversion information of monotonic raw

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@...ux.intel.com>

The conversion information of monotonic raw is not affected by NTP/PTP
correction. The perf tool can utilize the information to correctly
calculate the monotonic raw via a TSC in each PEBS record in the
post-processing stage.

The current conversion information is hidden in the internal
struct tk_read_base. Add a new external struct ktime_conv to store and
share the conversion information with other subsystems.

Add a new interface ktime_get_fast_mono_raw_conv() to expose the
conversion information of monotonic raw.  The function probably be
invoked in a NMI. Use NMI safe tk_fast_raw to retrieve the conversion
information.
