clocksource: add samsung pwm timer driver
This adds a new clocksource driver for the PWM timer that is present in most Samsung SoCs, based on the existing driver in arch/arm/plat-samsung/samsung-time.c and many changes implemented by Tomasz Figa. Originally, the conversion of all Samsung machines to the new driver was planned for 3.10, but that work ended up being too late and too invasive just before the merge window. Unfortunately, other changes in the Exynos platform resulted in some Exynos4 setups, particularly the Universal C210 board to be broken. In order to fix that with minimum risk, so we now leave the existing pwm clocksource driver in place for all older platforms and use the new driver only for device tree enabled boards. This way, we can get the broken machines running again using DT descriptions. All clocksource changes were implemented by Tomasz, while the DT registration was rewritten by Arnd.
