ring-buffer: Add rb_time_t 64 bit operations for speeding up 32 bit 

After a discussion with the new time algorithm to have nested events still
have proper time keeping but required using local64_t atomic operations.
Mathieu was concerned about the performance this would have on 32 bit
machines, as in most cases, atomic 64 bit operations on them can be
expensive.

As the ring buffer's timing needs do not require full features of local64_t,
a wrapper is made to implement a new rb_time_t operation that uses two longs
on 32 bit machines but still uses the local64_t operations on 64 bit
machines. There's a switch that can be made in the file to force 64 bit to
use the 32 bit version just for testing purposes.

All reads do not need to succeed if a read happened while the stamp being
read is in the process of being updated. The requirement is that all reads
must succed that were done by an interrupting event (where this event was
interrupted by another event that did the write). Or if the event itself did
the write first. That is: rb_time_set(t, x) followed by rb_time_read(t) will
always succeed (even if it gets interrupted by another event that writes to
t. The result of the read will be either the previous set, or a set
performed by an interrupting event.

If the read is done by an event that interrupted another event that was in
the process of setting the time stamp, and no other event came along to
write to that time stamp, it will fail and the rb_time_read() will return
that it failed (the value to read will be undefined).

A set will always write to the time stamp and return with a valid time
stamp, such that any read after it will be valid.

A cmpxchg may fail if it interrupted an event that was in the process of
updating the time stamp just like the reads do. Other than that, it will act
like a normal cmpxchg.

The way this works is that the rb_time_t is made of of three fields. A cnt,
that gets updated atomically everyting a modification is made. A top that
represents the most significant 30 bits of the time, and a bottom to
represent the least significant 30 bits of the time. Notice, that the time
values is only 60 bits long (where the ring buffer only uses 59 bits, which
gives us 18 years of nanoseconds!).

The top two bits of both the top and bottom is a 2 bit counter that gets set
by the value of the least two significant bits of the cnt. A read of the top
and the bottom where both the top and bottom have the same most significant
top 2 bits, are considered a match and a valid 60 bit number can be created
from it. If they do not match, then the number is considered invalid, and
this must only happen if an event interrupted another event in the midst of
updating the time stamp.

This is only used for 32 bits machines as 64 bit machines can get better
performance out of the local64_t. This has been tested heavily by forcing 64
bit to use this logic.

* On 32 bit machines, local64_t is very expensive. As the ring
* buffer doesn't need all the features of a true 64 bit atomic,
* on 32 bit, it uses these functions (64 still uses local64_t).
*
* For the ring buffer, 64 bit required operations for the time is
* the following:
*
* - Only need 59 bits (uses 60 to make it even).
* - Reads may fail if it interrupted a modification of the time stamp.
* It will succeed if it did not interrupt another write even if
* the read itself is interrupted by a write.
* It returns whether it was successful or not.
*
* - Writes always succeed and will overwrite other writes and writes
* that were done by events interrupting the current write.
*
* - A write followed by a read of the same time stamp will always succeed,
* but may not contain the same value.
*
* - A cmpxchg will fail if it interrupted another write or cmpxchg.
* Other than that, it acts like a normal cmpxchg.
*
* The 60 bit time stamp is broken up by 30 bits in a top and bottom half
* (bottom being the least significant 30 bits of the 60 bit time stamp).
*
* The two most significant bits of each half holds a 2 bit counter (0-3).
* Each update will increment this counter by one.
* When reading the top and bottom, if the two counter bits match then the
* top and bottom together make a valid 60 bit number.
