Hi all,

These two patches build on top of my other series for adding per-cpu
wakeup timers [1] which is currently queued in -tip [2].

The basic idea is to prefer the Arm architected timer, even when
CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP is set, as long as we have another timer which can
be used for the per-cpu wakeup. These patches use Exynos-MCT as an
example, since that driver currently goes out of its way to prevent use
of the Arm architected timer due to issues with a 32-bit SoC.

Cheers,

Will
