      We are seeing an increased failure rate of the rt/tst-cpuclock2 test on s390x.

      This upstream fix should increase test reliability and hopefully address these spurious failures:

    Remove unreliable parts of rt/tst-cpuclock2
    
    This is a follow-up to the tst-cpuclock1.c change here:
    9a29f1a2ae3d4bb253ee368e0d71db0ca9494120
    
    This test, like tst-cpuclock1, may fail on heavily loaded VM
    servers (and has occasionally failed on the 32bit trybot),
    so tests that rely on "wall time" have been removed.
