[PATCH v2] timekeeping: don't use seqcount loop in ktime_mono_to_any on 64-bit systems

[Jeff Layton]

ktime_mono_to_any only fetches the offset inside the loop. This is a
single word on 64-bit hosts, and seqcount_read_begin implies a full SMP
barrier.

When BITS_PER_LONG == 64, just do a simple ktime_add instead as there
is no possibility of getting a torn offset value.

Thanks for the review so far, Thomas! Hopefully this looks better.
Disregard my earlier question about making this a static inline too.
That would require making offsets[] a global symbol, which I don't think
we want to do.

Changes in v2:
- drop the READ_ONCE
- clean up changelog
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240910-mgtime-v1-1-35fb64bd0af5@xxxxxxxxxx
