Subject: [PATCH 1/2] clocksource/drivers/riscv: add notrace to
riscv_sched_clock

When enabling ftrace graph tracer, it gets the tracing clock in
ftrace_push_return_trace(). Eventually, it invokes riscv_sched_clock()
to get the clock value. If riscv_sched_clock() isn't marked with
'notrace', it will call ftrace_push_return_trace() and cause infinite
loop.

The result of failure as follow:

command: echo function_graph >current_tracer
