sched/clock: Fix broken stable to unstable transfer

Browse Source 
When it is determined that the clock is actually unstable, and
we switch from stable to unstable, the __clear_sched_clock_stable()
function is eventually called.

In this function we set gtod_offset so the following holds true:

  sched_clock() + raw_offset == ktime_get_ns() + gtod_offset

But instead of getting the latest timestamps, we use the last values
from scd, so instead of sched_clock() we use scd->tick_raw, and
instead of ktime_get_ns() we use scd->tick_gtod.

However, later, when we use gtod_offset sched_clock_local() we do not
add it to scd->tick_gtod to calculate the correct clock value when we
determine the boundaries for min/max clocks.

This can result in tick granularity sched_clock() values, so fix it.
