[Devel] [PATCH 13/17][cr][v4]: Add jiffies_begin field to ckpt_ctx

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

'jiffies_begin' is needed to compute relative time-offsets after restart.
We cannot use ->ktime_begin for these computations since, as pointed out
by John Stultz, converting jiffies to CLOCK_MONOTONIC can result in
incorrect values.
