From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com>

Realtime scheduling interferes with execlists submission (tasklet) so try
to simplify the PWM loop in a few ways:

 * Drop RT.
 * Longer batches for smaller systematic error.
 * More truthful test duration calculation.
 * Less clock queries.
 * No self-adjust - instead just report the achieved cycle and let the
   parent check against it.
 * Report absolute cycle error.

v2:
 * Bring back self-adjust. (Chris Wilson)
   (But slightly fixed version with no overflow.)

v3:
 * Log average and mean calibration for each pass.
