clocksource: Protect the watchdog rating changes with clocksource_mutex
Martin pointed out that commit 6ea41d2529 (clocksource: Call clocksource_change_rating() outside of watchdog_lock) has a theoretical reference count problem. The calls to clocksource_change_rating() are now done outside of the clocksource mutex and outside of the watchdog lock. A concurrent clocksource_unregister() could remove the clock. Split out the code which changes the rating from clocksource_change_rating() into __clocksource_change_rating(). Protect the clocksource_watchdog_work() code sequence with the clocksource_mutex() and call __clocksource_change_rating().
