[PATCH] powerpc/time: use feature fixup in __USE_RTC() instead of cpu feature.

From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Mon Aug 26 2019 - 02:59:38 EST


sched_clock(), used by printk(), calls __USE_RTC() to know
whether to use realtime clock or timebase.

__USE_RTC() uses cpu_has_feature() which is initialised by
machine_init(). Before machine_init(), __USE_RTC() returns true,
leading to a program check exception on CPUs not having realtime
clock.

In order to be able to use printk() earlier, use feature fixup.
Feature fixups are applies in early_init(), enabling the use of
printk() earlier.
