[PATCH 12/15] time: Expose current clocksource in use by timekeeping framework

For the drivers to be able to use the cross timestamp framework,
they need the information of current clocksource being used by the
kernel timekeeping. This is needed since the callback given by driver
into the get_device_system_crosststamp(), in order to synchronously read
the device time and system counter value, requires the knowledge of
the clocksource being used to read system counter value (as a part of
struct system_counterval_t).
