Subject: timers/sched_clock: Prevent generic sched_clock wrap caused by tick_freeze()

From: Chang-An Chen <chang-an.chen@mediatek.com>

commit 3f2552f7e9c5abef2775c53f7af66532f8bf65bc upstream.

tick_freeze() introduced by suspend-to-idle in commit 124cf9117c5f ("PM /
sleep: Make it possible to quiesce timers during suspend-to-idle") uses
timekeeping_suspend() instead of syscore_suspend() during
suspend-to-idle. As a consequence generic sched_clock will keep going
because sched_clock_suspend() and sched_clock_resume() are not invoked
during suspend-to-idle which can result in a generic sched_clock wrap.

On a ARM system with suspend-to-idle enabled, sched_clock is registered
as "56 bits at 13MHz, resolution 76ns, wraps every 4398046511101ns", which
means the real wrapping duration is 8796093022202ns.

[    0.057226] (0)[0:swapper/0]......
[    0.061447] (2)[0:swapper/2]......

sched_clock was not stopped during suspend-to-idle, and sched_clock_poll
hrtimer was not expired because timekeeping_suspend() was invoked during
suspend-to-idle. It makes sched_clock wrap at kernel time 8796s.

To prevent this, invoke sched_clock_suspend() and sched_clock_resume() in
tick_freeze() together with timekeeping_suspend() and timekeeping_resume().
