Add time keeping code for metag. Meta hardware threads have 2 timers.
The background timer (TXTIMER) is used as a free-running time base, and
the interrupt timer (TXTIMERI) is used for the timer interrupt. Both
counters traditionally count at approximately 1MHz.

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.

This patch adds support for the ARM generic timers with A64 instructions
for accessing the timer registers. It uses the physical counter as the
clock source and the virtual counter as sched_clock.
The timer frequency can be specified via DT or read from the CNTFRQ_EL0
register. The physical counter is also accessible from user space
allowing fast gettimeofday() implementation.
