I turns out that the silly spawn kthread from worker was actually needed.
clocksource_watchdog_kthread() cannot be called directly from
clocksource_watchdog_work(), because clocksource_select() calls
timekeeping_notify() which uses stop_machine(). One cannot use
stop_machine() from a workqueue() due lock inversions wrt CPU hotplug.
Revert the patch but add a comment that explain why we jump through such
apparently silly hoops.
Fixes: 7197e77abc ("clocksource: Remove kthread")
