This is a series of 3 patches related to the exynos MCT (multi core
timer). The first allows MCT to function as a udelay() timer which
fixes broken udelay on 5400, 5800, and even (to a lesser extent) on
5250. The second is some general cleanup. The third moves MCT to
32-bits where possible to give us a nice speedup.
The first probably ought to be destined for 3.16 as a bugfix whereas
the others could land in a future kernel release.
This series is based on (clocksource: exynos_mct: Fix ftrace).
With this series we can drop the patches I submitted:
- clocksource: exynos_mct: cache mct upper count
- clocksource: exynos_mct: Optimize register reads with ldmia
Changes in v3:
- Back to exynos_frc_read for now until 32/64 is resolved.
- Now returns cycles_t which matches arch/arm/include/asm/timex.h.
- Rebased.
- Moved registration to its own function.
- __raw_readl / __raw_writel patch new for version 3
- Now 32-bit version instead of ldmia version
Changes in v2:
- Added #defines for ARM and ARM64 as pointed by Doug Anderson.

clocksource: exynos_mct: Only use 32-bits where possible
