[PATCH] timekeeping: Convert jiffies_seq to seqcount_raw_spinlock_t

From: Davidlohr Bueso
Date: Wed Oct 21 2020 - 15:28:26 EST


Use the new api and associate the seqcounter to the jiffies_lock enabling
lockdep support - although for this particular case the write-side locking
and non-preemptibility are quite obvious.
