For coupled cpuidle to work when both cpus are active, it needs a global timer
that can handle events for both cpus.  This timer is used as the broadcast
clock-event when the per-cpu timer hardware stop in low power states.
Set the cpumask of clockevent_gpt to all cpus, set the rating correctly, and
set the irq to allow the clockevent core to determine the affinity of the
timer.

These patches made it to mainline now, shortly befor 3.6-rc1, and it
breaks boot on my AM33xx board.

Thanks Daniel for testing and reporting. I haven't tried 3.6-rc1 yet, as 
omap-linux/master has not yet migrated to it.
I am testing it now, and will let you know on the status.

Thanks,
