tracing: Do not set trace clock if tracefs lockdown is in effect

When trace_clock option is not set and unstable clcok detected,
tracing_set_default_clock() sets trace_clock(ThinkPad A285 is one of
case). In that case, if lockdown is in effect, null pointer
dereference error happens in ring_buffer_set_clock().
