Subject: [PATCH v5] [PATCH v5] pps: Add elapsed realtime timestamping

Some applications like Android needs elapsed realtime timestamping
to PPS pulse for its clock management. Add sysfs node for this.

+Real-time assert event::
+
+   Calculate the monotonic clock from the timespec clock to generate PPS elapsed
+   real-time event value and store the result into /sys/class/pps/pps0/assert_elapsed.
+   Because we have requirements to make sure the delta between standard time,
+   say the GPS Time, and elapsedRealtime < 1 millisecond,
+   regular linux clock timestamp is not enough for our use case.
+   The pin PPS will generate elapsedRealtime event at 1 sec boundary
+   which is an exact value of the monotonic clock from the kernel PPS driver
+   /sys/class/pps/pps0/assert_elapsed.
+   Whenever AP receives this pulse, kernel's pps driver timestamp this
+   elapsedRealtime event and let this time available via sysfs node
+   /sys/class/pps/pps0/assert_elapsed or the IOCTL call.
+
+   The device's Unix epoch time system clock is not monotonic; it can jump forwards
+   or backwards unpredictably and may be changed at any time by the user,
+   so this time should not be used to order or compare locations.
+   Prefer for that purpose, as the elapsed realtime clock is guaranteed to be monotonic.
