Clocksource pointers can be problematic to obtain for drivers which are not clocksource drivers themselves. In particular, the RFC virtio_rtc driver [1] would require a new helper function to obtain a pointer to the ARM Generic Timer clocksource. The ptp_kvm driver also required a similar workaround. Address this by evaluating the clocksource ID, rather than the clocksource pointer, of struct system_counterval_t. By this, setting the clocksource pointer becomes unneeded, and get_device_system_crosststamp() callers will no longer need to supply clocksource pointers. All relevant clocksource drivers provide the ID, so this change is not changing the behaviour.
