printk currently relies on local_clock to time-stamp the kernel messages. In order to allow the timestamping (and only that) to be overridden by architecture-specific code, let's declare a new timestamp_clock() function, which gets used by the printk code. Architectures willing to make use of this facility will have to define CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_TIMESTAMP_CLOCK.
The default is of course to return local_clock(), so that the existing behaviour stays unchanged.
