For the past 10 years, both Mark and I have been lamenting about the
sorry state of the badly named "arch_timer" driver, and about the way
the MMIO part is intricately weaved into the system-register part.

The time has finally come to have a stab at it.

This small series simply creates a new timer driver for the MMIO arch
timer, and only that. It is an actual driver, and not some kludge that
has to run super early (that's what the per-CPU timers are for). This
allows, in turn, a pretty large cleanup of the per-CPU driver, though
there is more to come -- one thing at a time.

As an added bonus, we get a clocksource, which the original code
didn't provide. Just in case it might be useful. The end-result is far
more readable, and about 100 lines smaller.

Patches on top of 6.16.
