locking/lockdep: Use sched_clock() for random numbers

Since the rewrote of prandom_u32(), in the commit mentioned below, the
function uses sleeping locks which extracing random numbers and filling
the batch.
This breaks lockdep on PREEMPT_RT because lock_pin_lock() disables
interrupts while calling __lock_pin_lock(). This can't be moved earlier
because the main user of the function (rq_pin_lock()) invokes that
function after disabling interrupts in order to acquire the lock.

The cookie does not require random numbers as its goal is to provide a
random value in order to notice unexpected "unlock + lock" sites.

Use sched_clock() to provide random numbers.
