Instead, at least calling sched_clock() would be preferable, because that always needs to return _something_, even falling back to jiffies eventually. It's not as though sched_clock() is super high precision or guaranteed to be entropic, but basically anything that's not zero all the time is better than returning zero all the time. This is accomplished by just including the asm-generic code like on other architectures, which means we can get rid of the empty stub function here.
