This is another version of the new davinci clocksource driver. After much
discussion this contains many changes to simplify and improve the driver.

v1 -> v2:
- changed the format of the copyright notice
- removed all mentiones of the periodic timer setting
- added caching of the TCR register value so that its updating doesn't
  require a read
- split the timer configuration for clock events into the
  set_state_oneshot() and set_state_shutdown() callbacks

v2 -> v3:
- tim34, if used, should run in periodic mode for clocksource, now fixed
- dropped all the configuration variables from struct davinci_clockevent
  as clockevent always uses tim12
- dropped caching of the TCR register with the following reasoning: on
  systems using tim34 for clocksource, the TCR register is only touched
  by the clock driver and we know that we need to keep tim34 in periodic
  mode; on da830 the RTOS running on the DSP may modify the TCR register
  but we on the other hand never change its settings when only using tim12
- subsequently the whole routine for TCR updating was dropped
- dropped the shift variable from most places
- added separate routines for initializing clocksource for da830 and all
  other systems
- sprinkled a bunch of comments all over the driver to explain things
  that caused confusion before
