[PATCH] m68k/mac: Remove redundant VIA register writes

[PATCH] m68k/mac: Remove redundant VIA register writes

[Finn Thain]

There's no need to write the same value to the timer latch and timer
counter registers. Values written to the counter registers get stored
in the latches anyway. The write to vT1CH copies the latch values to
the counter.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
