    timestamp: fix incremental linking error for !HAVE_MONOTONIC_TIMER
    
    In linking ramstage a single object file is created before linking
    with the linker script. Though there is a weak timestamp_get() symbol
    in timestamp.c any of its dependent symbols need to be available
    during the incremental link. As not all platforms have
    HAVE_MONOTONIC_TIMER enabled this will create a linking error.
    Fix this by providing a hint to the compiler to remove dead code
    and thus the dependent symbols causing linking errors in the presence
    of !HAVE_MONOTONIC_TIMER.
