[PATCH v2 3/3] timekeeping: Add CONFIG_HAS_PERSISTENT_CLOCK option

[Feng Tang]

Make the persistent clock check a kernel config option, so that some
platform can explicitely select it, also make CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS depends
on its non-existence, which could prevent the persistent clock and RTC
code from doing similar thing twice during system's init/suspend/resume
phases.

If the CONFIG_HAS_PERSISTENT_CLOCK=n, then no change happens for kernel
which still does the persistent clock check in timekeeping_init().
