[PATCH 3/5] sched_clock: Remove suspend from clock_read_data

John Stultz
2015-03-17T17:40:15Z

Currently cd.read_data.suspended is read by the hotpath function
sched_clock(). This variable need not be accessed on the hotpath. In
fact, once it is removed, we can remove the conditional branches from
sched_clock() and install a dummy read_sched_clock function to suspend
the clock.

The new master copy of the function pointer (actual_read_sched_clock) is
introduced and is used for all reads of the clock hardware except those
within sched_clock itself.
