b841065043 selftests: timers: drop support for !KTEST case
There is no need to keep timers tests in sync with external timers
repo. Drop support for !KTEST to support for building and running
timers tests without kselftest framework.

6035519fcf timers, kselftest: Add 'adjtick' test to validate adjtimex() tick adjustments
Recently a kernel side NTP bug was fixed via the following commit:

  2619d7e9c9 ("time: Fix timekeeping_freqadjust()'s incorrect use of abs() instead of abs64()")

When the bug was reported it was difficult to detect, except by
tweaking the adjtimex tick value, and noticing how quickly the
adjustment took:

Thus this patch introduces a new test which manipulates the
adjtimex tick value and validates that the results are what we
expect.
