Subject: [PATCH v2] posix-timers: add multi_clock_gettime system call
Some user space applications need to read some clocks.
Each read requires moving from user space to kernel space.
This asymmetry causes the measured offset to have a significant error.
Introduce a new system call multi_clock_gettime, which can be used to measure
the offset between multiple clocks, from variety of types: PHC, virtual PHC
and various system clocks (CLOCK_REALTIME, CLOCK_MONOTONIC, etc).
The offset includes the total time that the driver needs to read the clock
timestamp.
New system call allows the reading of a list of clocks - up to PTP_MAX_CLOCKS.
Supported clocks IDs: PHC, virtual PHC and various system clocks.
Up to PTP_MAX_SAMPLES times (per clock) in a single system call read.
The system call returns n_clocks timestamps for each measurement:
- clock 0 timestamp
- ...
- clock n timestamp

Addressed comments from:
- Richard Cochran : https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg951723.html
Changes since version 1:
- Change multi PHC ioctl implamantation into systemcall.
