[PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.9 124/219] ARM: dts: rockchip: disable arm-global-timer for rk3188

From: Alexander Kochetkov <al.kochet@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 500d0aa918a2ea6bb918fee8adcf27dc2912bcd1 ]

The clocksource and the sched_clock provided by the arm_global_timer
are quite unstable because their rates depend on the cpu frequency.

On the other side, the arm_global_timer has a higher rating than the
rockchip_timer, it will be selected by default by the time framework
while we want to use the stable rockchip clocksource.

Let's disable the arm_global_timer in order to have the rockchip
clocksource selected by default.
