The struct clocksource callbacks enable() and disable() are described as a
way to allow clock sources to enter a power save mode. See commit
4614e6adaf ("clocksource: add enable() and disable() callbacks")
But using runtime PM from these callbacks triggers a cyclic lockdep warning when
switching clock source using change_clocksource().

WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected

migration/0/11 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff0000403ed220 (&dev->power.lock){-...}-{2:2}, at: __pm_runtime_resume+0x40/0x74
but task is already holding lock:
ffff8000113c8f88 (tk_core.seq.seqcount){----}-{0:0}, at: multi_cpu_stop+0xa4/0x190
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:
Chain exists of:
&dev->power.lock --> hrtimer_bases.lock --> tk_core.seq.seqcount
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(tk_core.seq.seqcount);
lock(hrtimer_bases.lock);
lock(tk_core.seq.seqcount);
lock(&dev->power.lock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
2 locks held by migration/0/11:
#0: ffff8000113c9278 (timekeeper_lock){-.-.}-{2:2}, at: change_clocksource+0x2c/0x160
#1: ffff8000113c8f88 (tk_core.seq.seqcount){----}-{0:0}, at: multi_cpu_stop+0xa4/0x190
Rework change_clocksource() so it enables the new clocksource and disables
the old clocksource outside of the timekeeper_lock and seqcount write held
region. There is no requirement that these callbacks are invoked from the
lock held region.
