The patch update arm_arch_timer driver to use the function
provided by the new GTDT driver of ACPI.
By this way, arm_arch_timer.c can be simplified, and separate
all the ACPI GTDT knowledge from this timer driver.

This generally looks fine, but:

+	arch_timer_ppi[PHYS_SECURE_PPI] = acpi_gtdt_map_ppi(PHYS_SECURE_PPI);

As mentioned on the prior patch, I think we shouldn't bother parsing the
secure interrupt, given the problem with the GSIV, and the fact that we
shouldn't need it in Linux.

+	arch_timer_ppi[PHYS_NONSECURE_PPI] = acpi_gtdt_map_ppi(PHYS_NONSECURE_PPI);
+	arch_timer_ppi[VIRT_PPI] = acpi_gtdt_map_ppi(VIRT_PPI);
+	arch_timer_ppi[HYP_PPI] = acpi_gtdt_map_ppi(HYP_PPI);
+	/* Always-on capability */
+	arch_timer_c3stop = acpi_gtdt_c3stop();

... I think we should check the flag on the relevant interrupt, though
that's worth clarifying.

 
-	/* Always-on capability */
-	arch_timer_c3stop = !(gtdt->non_secure_el1_flags & ACPI_GTDT_ALWAYS_ON);
+	if (timer_count < 0)
+		pr_err("Failed to get platform timer info.\n");

Why don't we log this in the code that would try to initialise the MMIO
timer? We can still fail after this.

Thanks,
Mark.
