The current codes in gameport and analog joystick drivers for the time
accounting have a long-standing problem when the system is running
with CPU freq; since the timing is measured via TSC or sample counter,
the calculation isn't reliable.

In this patch, as a simple fix, use the standard ktime to measure the
timing.  In case where no high resolution timer is available,
use_ktime bool option is provided to both modules.  Setting
use_ktime=false switches to the old methods.

As with ARM the ARMv8 architecture provides a cycle counter which can be
used to provide a high resolution time for the joystick driver and
silence the build warning that results from not having a precise timer
on ARMv8, making allmodconfig and allyesconfig quieter.

ARM normally has an accurate clock source, so
we can theoretically use analog joysticks more
accurately and at the same time avoid the
build warning

 #warning Precise timer not defined for this architecture.

from the joystick driver.

Now, why anybody would use that driver no ARM I have no
idea, but Ben Dooks enabled it in the s3c2410_defconfig
along with a bunch of other drivers, even though that
platform has neither ISA nor PCI support. It still
seems to be the right thing to fix this quirk.

The analog joystick driver is written for x86 systems. This
patch updates it to use the PIT_TICK_RATE value instead of
CLOCK_TICK_RATE as they are equivalent on x86 and we want to
deprecate the latter.

not be converted to a sleeping lock.

<title>time: move PIT_TICK_RATE to linux/timex.h</title>

PIT_TICK_RATE is currently defined in four architectures, but in three
different places.  While linux/timex.h is not the perfect place for it, it
is still a reasonable replacement for those drivers that traditionally use
asm/timex.h to get CLOCK_TICK_RATE and expect it to be the PIT frequency.

Note that for Alpha, the actual value changed from 1193182UL to 1193180UL.
 This is unlikely to make a difference, and probably can only improve
accuracy.  There was a discussion on the correct value of CLOCK_TICK_RATE
a few years ago, after which every existing instance was getting changed
to 1193182.  According to the specification, it should be
1193181.818181...
