A deadlock has been seen when swicthing clocksources which use
PM-runtime. The call path is:
change_clocksource
...
write_seqcount_begin
...
timekeeping_update
...
sh_cmt_clocksource_enable
...
rpm_resume
pm_runtime_mark_last_busy
ktime_get
do
read_seqcount_begin
while read_seqcount_retry
....
write_seqcount_end
Although we should be safe because we haven't yet changed the
clocksource at that time, we can't do that because of seqcount
protection.
Use ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() instead which is lock safe for such
cases.
With ktime_get_mono_fast_ns, the timestamp is not guaranteed to be
monotonic across an update and as a result can goes backward.
According to update_fast_timekeeper() description: "In the worst
case, this can result is a slightly wrong timestamp (a few
nanoseconds)". For PM-runtime autosuspend, this means only that
the suspend decision may be slightly suboptimal.
Fixes: 8234f67 ("PM-runtime: Switch autosuspend over to using hrtimers")
