I think it probably makes sense to have the sysreg encoding stuff in the
arch-specific files, and have an indirection in sys_regs.c and coproc.c
which 'translates' from a system register to some generic arch timer
define identifying a 'timer'.

I think the major breakage in the previous design was to use the same
*functions* for uaccess and for sysregs traps, but I don't think it was
necessarily a problem to use the same definitions to identify a timer.

That of couse leaves the problem of how to identify a register within a
timer.  Could we do something as braindead as:
