[PATCH v5 1/6] timekeeper: introduce extended clocksource reading callback

[Denis Plotnikov <dplotnikov@virtuozzo.com>]

The callback provides extended information about just read
clocksource value.

It's going to be used in cases when detailed system information
needed for further time related values calculation, e.g in KVM
masterclock settings calculation.
