* Support for memory mapped arch_timers
* Trivial fixes to the moxart timer code
* Documentation updates
Trivial conflicts in drivers/clocksource/arm_arch_timer.c. Fixed up
the newly added __cpuinit annotations as well.

Add support for the memory mapped timers by filling in the
read/write functions and adding some parsing code. Note that we
only register one clocksource, preferring the cp15 based
clocksource over the mmio one.
To keep things simple we register one global clockevent. This
covers the case of UP and SMP systems with only mmio hardware and
systems where the memory mapped timers are used as the broadcast
timer in low power modes.
The DT binding allows for per-CPU memory mapped timers in case we
want to support that in the future, but the code isn't added
here. We also don't do much for hypervisor support, although it
should be possible to support it by searching for at least two
frames where one frame has the virtual capability and then
updating KVM timers to support it.

We're going to introduce support to read and write the memory
mapped timer registers in the next patch, so push the cp15
read/write functions one level deeper. This simplifies the next
patch and makes it clearer what's going on.

There isn't any reason why we don't pass the event here and we'll
need it in the near future for memory mapped arch timers anyway.

Using an enum for the register we wish to access allows newer
compilers to determine if we've forgotten a case in our switch
statement. This allows us to remove the BUILD_BUG() instances in
the arm64 port, avoiding problems where optimizations may not
happen.
To try and force better code generation we're currently marking
the accessor functions as inline, but newer compilers can ignore
the inline keyword unless it's marked __always_inline. Luckily on
arm and arm64 inline is __always_inline, but let's make
everything __always_inline to be explicit.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
This removes all the drivers/clocksource and drivers/irqchip uses of
the __cpuinit macros from all C files.

Switching between reading the virtual or physical counters is
problematic, as some core code wants a view of time before we're fully
set up. Using a function pointer and switching the source after the
first read can make time appear to go backwards, and having a check in
the read function is an unfortunate block on what we want to be a fast
path.
Instead, this patch makes us always use the virtual counters. If we're a
guest, or don't have hyp mode, we'll use the virtual timers, and as such
don't care about CNTVOFF as long as it doesn't change in such a way as
to make time appear to travel backwards. As the guest will use the
virtual timers, a (potential) KVM host must use the physical timers
(which can wake up the host even if they fire while a guest is
executing), and hence a host must have CNTVOFF set to zero so as to have
a consistent view of time between the physical timers and virtual
counters.

Hot-plugging with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y on a device with arm
architected timers causes a slew of "using smp_processor_id() in
preemptible" warnings:
BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: sh/111
caller is arch_timer_cpu_notify+0x14/0xc8
This happens because sometimes the cpu notifier,
arch_timer_cpu_notify(), is called in preemptible context and
other times in non-preemptible context but we use this_cpu_ptr()
to retrieve the clockevent in all cases. We're only going to
actually use the pointer in non-preemptible context though, so
push the this_cpu_ptr() access down into the cases to force the
checks to occur only in non-preemptible contexts.

This converts arm and arm64 to use CLKSRC_OF DT based initialization for
the arch timer. A new function arch_timer_arch_init is added to allow for
arch specific setup.
This has a side effect of enabling sched_clock on omap5 and exynos5. There
should not be any reason not to use the arch timers for sched_clock.

If we're booted in HYP mode, it is possible that we'll run some
kind of virtualized environment. In this case, it is a better to
switch to the physical timers, and leave the virtual timers to
guests.

The arch_timer driver supports a superset of the functionality of the
arm_generic driver, and is not tied to a particular arch.
This patch moves arm64 to use the arch_timer driver, gaining additional
functionality in doing so, and removes the (now unused) arm_generic
driver. Timer-related hooks specific to arm64 are moved into
arch/arm64/kernel/time.c.

The core functionality of the arch_timer driver is not directly tied to
anything under arch/arm, and can be split out.
This patch factors out the core of the arch_timer driver, so it can be
shared with other architectures. A couple of functions are added so
that architecture-specific code can interact with the driver without
needing to touch its internals.
The ARM_ARCH_TIMER config variable is moved out to
drivers/clocksource/Kconfig, existing uses in arch/arm are replaced with
HAVE_ARM_ARCH_TIMER, which selects it.
