From: Xunlei Pang <pang.xunlei@linaro.org>

As part of addressing in-kernel y2038 issues, this patch adds
read_boot_clock64() and replaces all the call sites of read_boot_clock()
with this function. This is a __weak implementation, which simply
calls the existing y2038 unsafe read_boot_clock().

This allows architecture specific implementations to be converted
independently, and eventually the y2038 unsafe read_boot_clock()
can be removed after all its architecture specific implementations
have been converted to read_boot_clock64().

Thanks for the reminder. Since there's not been any objections, I'm
queuing this up.

thanks
