[RFC,5/9] loongarch: Provide noinstr sched_clock_read()

Commit Message

With the intent to provide local_clock_noinstr(), a variant of
local_clock() that's safe to be called from noinstr code (with the
assumption that any such code will already be non-preemptible),
prepare for things by providing a noinstr sched_clock_read() function.

Specifically, preempt_enable_*() calls out to schedule(), which upsets
noinstr validation efforts.
