It is taken care by the HW. We just configure the register as mentioned below
and hardware provide counter values once feeding the signals to 
either
{MTCLKA and MTCLKB} for both MTU1 and  MTU2 

or 

MTU1{MTCLKA and MTCLKB} and MTU2{MTCLKC and MTCLKD}

The signal feeding is same for 16-bit and 32-bit phase modes.

Note:- I haven't tested 32-bit mode yet.
