This provides some serious scheduling for the Nomadik family by
introducing a sched_clock() using the MTU clock source in the
same manner as e.g. OMAP or U300. This type of solutions has been
discussed at no end in the past, however we need this resolution
for making measurements and using HRTimers.

This is a complete rewrite of the MTU driver, using one-shot
for events and a free-running timer for stamping. It allows
CONFIG_NO_HZ and CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS to work on Nomadik and Ux500.

These functions are called with irqs already off. This commit removes
the calls to raw_local_irq_save and raw_local_irq_restore on platforms
that don't have to use a shared interrupt for their timekeeping.

Introduce the plat-nomadik folder for ST-Ericsson
machines including the existing nomadik 8815 architecture.
This also moves the existing MTU (MultiTimerUnit)
of nomadik 8815 to the proposed plat-nomadik and adds
HAS_MTU. The patch has been re-based to 2.6.32-rc6
