Yes both use ktime_get().

The issue concerns internal/external oscillator clocks (time 
stabilization could be long) and
if a driver wants to enable one these clocks before device_initcall().

By default the clocksource is the jiffies until the end of the boot 
(fs_initcall)
Then after, the best clocksource is selected (arm_system_timer or stm32 
timer, etc...)
There is no problem after because the counter is a hardware register.

But the jiffies counter is incremented by interruption and enable op
does not allow to be interrupted. (we can with prepare op).
