Thomas, we could not find the de-rate stuff, but the above can be
simplified; what happens is:
cs->flags |= UNSTABLE;
schedule_work(&watchdog_work)
kthread_run(clocksource_watchdog_kthread)
__clocksource_watchdog_kthread()
if (cs->flags & UNSTABLE)
__clocksource_change_rating()
clocksource_select()
