Thomas Gleixner e5d4d1756b timekeeping: Split jiffies seqlock 
seqlock consists of a sequence counter and a spinlock_t which is used to
serialize the writers. spinlock_t is substituted by a "sleeping" spinlock
on PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels which breaks the usage in the timekeeping
code as the writers are executed in hard interrupt and therefore
non-preemptible context even on PREEMPT_RT.

The spinlock in seqlock cannot be unconditionally replaced by a
raw_spinlock_t as many seqlock users have nesting spinlock sections or
other code which is not suitable to run in truly atomic context on RT.

Instead of providing a raw_seqlock API for a single use case, open code the
seqlock for the jiffies use case and implement it with a raw_spinlock_t and
a sequence counter.
