[GIT PULL]: clocksource: new material for 3.13

Hi Thomas,

this pull request is based on 3.12-rc3 with the following content:

  - Miroslav improved the RTC update by increasing the interval 
acceptable for an update in the sync_cmos_clock workqueue callback

  - Prarit added a missing function declaration to fix a compilation 
issue on x86. Please *note*, this patch is coming from a pull from 
John's tree, it would make sense to cherry-pick this fix into timers/urgent

  - Soren added FEAT_PERCPU to a clock device when it is local per cpu. 
This feature prevents the clock framework to choose a per cpu timer as a 
broadcast timer. This problem arised when the ARM global timer is used 
which is the case now on Xillinx.

  - Stephen extended the generic sched_clock code to support 64bit 
counters and removes the setup_sched_clock deprecation, as that causes 
lots of warnings since there's still users in the arch/arm tree.

  - Will and Sudeep implemented the event stream for architected timer. 
The event streams can be used to impose a timeout on a wfe, to safeguard 
against any programming error in case an expected event is not generated 
or even to implement wfe-based timeouts for userspace locking 
implementations.

  - Zoran prevents to enter suspend mode if there are pending RTC timers 
to be handled, avoiding these ones to be delayed as well as the 
subsequent possible time critical code tied with them.

Thanks
   -- Daniel
