Thomas Gleixner dbdcf8c4ca timekeeping: Encapsulate locking/unlocking of timekeeper_lock
timekeeper_lock protects updates of timekeeper (tk_core). It is also used
by vdso_update_begin/end() and not only internally by the timekeeper code.

As long as there is only a single timekeeper, this works fine.  But when
the timekeeper infrastructure will be reused for per ptp clock timekeepers,
timekeeper_lock needs to be part of tk_core..

Therefore encapuslate locking/unlocking of timekeeper_lock and make the
lock static.
