[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 0/2] drm: add monotonic timestamp support

This is needed to make applications using wait-for-vblank/page-flip
timestamps independent of time ajdustments other than adjustments for
HW clock jitter.

I've tested these with an updated intel-gpu-test/flip_test and will send
the update for that once there's no objection about this patchset.

The patchset is based on the nightly branch of [1], with Rob Clark's
"drm: add drm_send_vblank_event() helper" patchset applied.

Changes since the RFC:
- use monotonic instead of raw monotonic time
- use a module global flag instead of a per-client flag to set the
  compatibility mode with GTOD timestamps
- rebased on top of Rob Clark's drm_send_vblank_event patchset
