    x86: unregister PIT clocksource when PIT is disabled
    
    The following scenario might leave PIT as a disfunctional clock source:
    
        PIT is registered as clocksource
        PM_TIMER is registered as clocksource and enables highres/dyntick mode
        PIT is switched to oneshot mode
        -> now the readout of PIT is bogus, but the user might select PIT
        via the sysfs override, which would break the box as the time
        readout is unusable.
    
    Unregister the PIT clocksource when the PIT clock event device is switched
    into shutdown / oneshot mode.
