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

When there's no persistent clock, normally timekeeping_suspend_time
should always be zero, but this can break in timekeeping_suspend().

At T1, there was a system suspend, so old_delta was assigned T1.
After some time, one time adjustment happened, and xtime got the
value of T1-dt(0s<dt<2s). Then, there comes another system suspend
soon after this adjustment, obviously we will get a small negative
delta_delta, resulting in a negative timekeeping_suspend_time.

This is problematic, when doing timekeeping_resume() if there is
no nonstop clocksource for example, it will hit the else leg and
inject the improper sleeptime which is the wrong logic.

So, we can solve this problem by only doing delta related code when
the persistent clock is existent. Actually the code only makes sense
for persistent clock cases.
