Calling omap_dm_timer_prepare while the spinlock is held is not
allowed as sleeping functions are called later on during the
preparation (namely within clk_get()).

dm_timer_lock is only required for protecting the
omap_timer_list. After the timer is marked as reserved, the lock is no
longer needed and should be freed.
