timekeeping: Prevent oops when GENERIC_TIME=n
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!
