Alexander Gordeev 46b402a0e5 pps: add parallel port PPS signal generator
Add PPS signal generator which utilizes STROBE pin of a parallel port to
send PPS signals.  It uses parport abstraction layer and hrtimers to
precisely control the signal.

---help---
PPS (Pulse Per Second) is a special pulse provided by some GPS
antennae. Userland can use it to get a high-precision time
reference.
Some antennae's PPS signals are connected with the CD (Carrier
Detect) pin of the serial line they use to communicate with the
host. In this case use the SERIAL_LINE client support.
Some antennae's PPS signals are connected with some special host
inputs so you have to enable the corresponding client support.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called pps_core.ko.
config PPS_DEBUG
bool "PPS debugging messages"
depends on PPS
help
Say Y here if you want the PPS support to produce a bunch of debug
messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a
problem with PPS support and want to see more of what is going on.
config NTP_PPS
bool "PPS kernel consumer support"
depends on PPS && !NO_HZ
help
This option adds support for direct in-kernel time
syncronization using an external PPS signal.
It doesn't work on tickless systems at the moment.
