    timekeeping: Prevent oops when GENERIC_TIME=n · ad6759fb
    john stultz authored
    Aaro Koskinen reported an issue in kernel.org bugzilla #15366, where
    on non-GENERIC_TIME systems, accessing
    /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource
    results in an oops.
    
    It seems the timekeeper/clocksource rework missed initializing the
    curr_clocksource value in the !GENERIC_TIME case.
    
    Thanks to Aaro for reporting and diagnosing the issue as well as
    testing the fix!
