time: Add y2038 safe read_persistent_clock64()



As part of addressing in-kernel y2038 issues, this patch adds
read_persistent_clock64() and replaces all the call sites of
read_persistent_clock() with this function. This is a __weak
implementation, which simply calls the existing y2038 unsafe
read_persistent_clock().

This allows architecture specific implementations to be
converted independently, and eventually the y2038 unsafe
read_persistent_clock() can be removed after all its
architecture specific implementations have been converted to
read_persistent_clock64().
