To get ARM Architected Timers working on Samsung Exynos SoCs, one has to
first configure and enable Exynos Multi-Core Timer, because they both
share some common hardware blocks (global system counter). This patch
adds a mode of cooperation with arch_timer driver, so kernel can use
CP15 based timer interface via arch_timer driver, which is mandatory
on ARM64. In such mode MCT driver only enables its clocks and starts
global timer. Everything else will be handled by arch_timer driver.
