Ah I was looking at https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=clock_gettime

Well it seems they implemented things differently to what they intended to do, and given that previous versions did not include suspend and now `CLOCK_BOOTTIME` behaves identical to `CLOCK_MONOTONIC` (both including suspend) that `__linux__` check is really unnecessary there now.

I couldn't find any other BSD with `CLOCK_BOOTTIME` so I will just remove it.
