[PATCH v2] clocksource/drivers/dw_apb_timer: Use {readl|writel}_relaxed

[Jisheng Zhang]

The driver is safe to use the relaxed version. From another side, the
relaxed io accessor macros are available on all architectures now, so
we can use the relaxed versions to get a trivial overall system
performance improvement and reduce the latency a bit on some
architectures.

since v1:
 - correct the wrong sentence in commit msg about writel performance on
   CA9 with outer L2 cache. Thank Arnd for pointing out this in another
   thread
