clocksource: Allow clocksource_mark_unstable() on unregistered clocksources
Because of how the code flips between tsc-early and tsc clocksources
it might need to mark one or both unstable. The current code in
mark_tsc_unstable() only worked because previously it registered the
tsc clocksource once and then never touched it.
Since it now unregisters the tsc-early clocksource, it needs to know
if a clocksource got unregistered and the current cs->mult test
doesn't work for that. Instead use list_empty(&cs->list) to test for
registration.
Furthermore, since clocksource_mark_unstable() needs to place the cs
on the wd_list, it links the cs->list and cs->wd_list serialization.
It must not see a clocsource registered (!empty cs->list) but already
past dequeue_watchdog(). So place {en,de}queue{,_watchdog}() under the
same lock.
Provided cs->list is initialized to empty, this then allows us to
unconditionally use clocksource_mark_unstable(), regardless of the
registration state.
