There is a timer wrap issue on dra7 for the ARM architected timer.
In a typical clock configuration the timer fails to wrap after 388 days.

To work around the issue, we need to use timer-ti-dm percpu timers instead.

Let's configure dmtimer3 and 4 as percpu timers by default, and warn about
the issue if the dtb is not configured properly.

Let's do this as a single patch so it can be backported to v5.8 and later
kernels easily. 
Cc: <redacted> # v5.8+

??
Yes please, that would be great.

Thanks,

Tony
