I had to squash this patch together with the next two to avoid
intermediate compile breakage. Otherwise we get an undefined reference
to clocksource_hz2mult().

One thing that strikes me here is that first arm_arch_timer_init() is
called and afterwards ls1028a_timer_init(). I have no idea what timer
ls1028a_timer_init() initializes and if that has anything to do with
the architected timer, but if it has the order should likely be the
other way round.
