A watchdog maximum skew of 100us may still be too small for
some systems or archs. It may also be too small when some kernel
debug config options are enabled. So add a new Kconfig option
CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW_US to allow kernel builders to have more
control on the threshold for marking clocksource as unstable.

hardware is not capable then this option only increases
the size of the kernel image.
