Now that sched_clock is mandatory on ARM it's simple to add
sched_clock support to the MSM timer code. Add it so that we get
more accurate sched_clock output than the jiffies based version
that's provided by default.

Marc, are you able to pull this into your series, so they can all go
in together?  If so:

David, Stephen,

Russell already pulled my sched_clock() patch series, so I'm not sure it
is actually useful for me to carry it (and there is actually no
dependency between this patch and the series). Maybe putting it in the
patch system or via armsoc would be best?

Otherwise:

I'll keep an eye on it then, and push it into the ARM soc tree when
the dependencies are there.
The whole thing is that there's no dependency. The sched_clock() stuff
has hit mainline during the merge window. This patch could go in right
now, without any harm.

What Russell pulled is just a cleanup to convert the last two platforms
having their own sched_clock() and not relying on our framework.
