[PATCH 3/9] Remove unused header <linux/cnt32_to_63.h>

[Jonathan Corbet]

Commit fb37409a01b0 ("arch: remove unicore32 port) deleted the last file
that included <linux/cnt32_to_63.h>, but left that header file behind.
Nothing uses it, delete it now.

-/**
- * cnt32_to_63 - Expand a 32-bit counter to a 63-bit counter
- * @cnt_lo: The low part of the counter
- *
- * Many hardware clock counters are only 32 bits wide and therefore have
- * a relatively short period making wrap-arounds rather frequent.  This
- * is a problem when implementing sched_clock() for example, where a 64-bit
- * non-wrapping monotonic value is expected to be returned.
- *
- * To overcome that limitation, let's extend a 32-bit counter to 63 bits
- * in a completely lock free fashion. Bits 0 to 31 of the clock are provided
- * by the hardware while bits 32 to 62 are stored in memory.  The top bit in
- * memory is used to synchronize with the hardware clock half-period.  When
- * the top bit of both counters (hardware and in memory) differ then the
- * memory is updated with a new value, incrementing it when the hardware
- * counter wraps around.
- *
- * Because a word store in memory is atomic then the incremented value will
- * always be in synch with the top bit indicating to any potential concurrent
- * reader if the value in memory is up to date or not with regards to the
- * needed increment.  And any race in updating the value in memory is harmless
- * as the same value would simply be stored more than once.
- *
- * The restrictions for the algorithm to work properly are:
- *
- * 1) this code must be called at least once per each half period of the
- *    32-bit counter;
- *
- * 2) this code must not be preempted for a duration longer than the
- *    32-bit counter half period minus the longest period between two
- *    calls to this code;
- *
- * Those requirements ensure proper update to the state bit in memory.
- * This is usually not a problem in practice, but if it is then a kernel
- * timer should be scheduled to manage for this code to be executed often
- * enough.
- *
- * And finally:
- *
- * 3) the cnt_lo argument must be seen as a globally incrementing value,
- *    meaning that it should be a direct reference to the counter data which
- *    can be evaluated according to a specific ordering within the macro,
- *    and not the result of a previous evaluation stored in a variable.
- *
- * For example, this is wrong:
- *
- *	u32 partial = get_hw_count();
- *	u64 full = cnt32_to_63(partial);
- *	return full;
- *
- * This is fine:
- *
- *	u64 full = cnt32_to_63(get_hw_count());
- *	return full;
- *
- * Note that the top bit (bit 63) in the returned value should be considered
- * as garbage.  It is not cleared here because callers are likely to use a
- * multiplier on the returned value which can get rid of the top bit
- * implicitly by making the multiplier even, therefore saving on a runtime
- * clear-bit instruction. Otherwise caller must remember to clear the top
- * bit explicitly.
