ARM: OMAP: counter: add locking to read_persistent_clock

Commit Message

R Sricharan Sept. 12, 2012, 5:53 a.m. UTC

From: Colin Cross <[e-mail]>

read_persistent_clock uses a global variable, use a spinlock to
ensure non-atomic updates to the variable don't overlap and cause
time to move backwards.
