timekeeping: Add warnings when overflows or underflows are observed
It was suggested that the underflow/overflow protection
should probably throw some sort of warning out, rather
than just silently fixing the issue.
So this patch adds some warnings here. The flag variables
used are not protected by locks, but since we can't print
from the reading functions, just being able to say we
saw an issue in the update interval is useful enough,
and can be slightly racy without real consequence.
The big complication is that we're only under a read
seqlock, so the data could shift under us during
our calculation to see if there was a problem. This
patch avoids this issue by nesting another seqlock
which allows us to snapshot the just required values
atomically. So we shouldn't see false positives.
I also added some basic rate-limiting here, since
on one build machine w/ skewed TSCs it was fairly
noisy at bootup.
