I have said several times already that there is no reason for this change.  The
clock_getcpuclockid provides the information.  There is no reason to duplicate
all this work over and over again in the gettime function.  If somebody
disregards the information that the clock is not available they don't deserve
better.  And maybe somebody wants to continue using the information, e.g., if a
process is tied to one specific processor.  Then the itc value is usable.

Beside, despite being told you have to follow the coding standard you chose to
ignore this.  That's certainly a good way to get any of your changes accepted.
