I updated the commit message (see V2 of this patch).  I hope the new
commit message satisfies the concerns:

"There are some differences between tegra20's timer registers and tegra30's
(and later).  For example, tegra30 has more timers.  In addition, watchdogs are
not present in tegra20.

Add this compatibility string in order to be able to distinguish whether the
additional timers and watchdogs are there or not."
