Subject: [PATCH v2 20/25] timekeeping: Rework
 timekeeping_inject_sleeptime64() to use shadow_timekeeper

From: Anna-Maria Behnsen <anna-maria@...utronix.de>

Updates of the timekeeper can be done by operating on the shadow timekeeper
and afterwards copying the result into the real timekeeper. This has the
advantage, that the sequence count write protected region is kept as small
as possible.

Convert timekeeping_inject_sleeptime64() to use this scheme.
