Exynos Multi-Core Timer driver (exynos_mct) must be started before ARM
Architected Timers (arch_timer), because they both share some common
hardware blocks (global system counter) and turning on MCT is needed
to get ARM Architected Timer working properly. Increase MCT timer rating
and hotplug priority over ARM Archictected timer driver to achieve that.
