timekeeping: Add a lockdep override in tick_freeze()

tick_freeze() acquires a raw spinlock (tick_freeze_lock). Later in the
callchain (timekeeping_suspend() -> mc146818_avoid_UIP()) the RTC driver
acquires a spinlock which becomes a sleeping lock on PREEMPT_RT.  Lockdep
complains about this lock nesting.

Add a lockdep override for this special case and a comment explaining
why it is okay.
