    MIPS: make cp0 counter clocksource/event usable as fallback. · 779e7d41
    Manuel Lauss authored
    The current mips clock build infrastructure lets a system only use
    either the MIPS cp0 counter or a SoC specific timer as a clocksource /
    clockevent device.
    
    This patch renames the core cp0 counter clocksource / clockevent functions
    from mips_* to r4k_* and updates the wrappers in asm-mips/time.h to
    call these renamed functions instead.
    
    Chips which can detect whether it is safe to use a chip-specific timer
    can now fall back on the cp0 counter if necessary and possible
    (e.g. Alchemy with a follow-on patch).
    
    Existing behaviour is not changed in any way.
