Revert 337f1304 ("futex: Allow FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME with FUTEX_WAIT op")
The FUTEX_WAIT operand has historically a relative timeout which means that the clock id is irrelevant as relative timeouts on CLOCK_REALTIME are not subject to wall clock changes and therefore are mapped by the kernel to CLOCK_MONOTONIC for simplicity. If a caller would set FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME for FUTEX_WAIT the timeout is still treated relative vs. CLOCK_MONOTONIC and then the wait arms that timeout based on CLOCK_REALTIME which is broken and obviously has never been used or even tested. Reject any attempt to use FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME with FUTEX_WAIT again. The desired functionality can be achieved with FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET and a FUTEX_BITSET_MATCH_ANY argument.
