Reorganize some of the GIC clocksource driver code. Below is a list of
the various changes.
* No longer select CSRC_GIC by default for Malta platform.
* Limit choice for either the GIC or R4K clocksource, not both.
* Change location in Makefile.
* Created new 'gic_read_count' function in common 'irq-gic.c' file.
* Change 'git_hpt_read' function in 'csrc-gic.c' to use new function.
* Surround GIC specific code in Malta platform code with #ifdef's.
* Only initialize the GIC clocksource if it was selected. Original
code called it unconditionally if a GIC was found.

Move the global variable 'gic_frequency' to be defined in the file
'arch/mips/kernel/irq-gic.c' instead of defining it individually
for each platform making use of the GIC. Also change the type to
be an unsigned integer instead of signed.

Remove 'arch/mips/include/asm/mips-boards/prom.h' and get rid of
all inclusions of it by Malta and SEAD-3 platforms.

The persistent clock of some architectures (e.g. s390) have a
better granularity than seconds. To reduce the delta between the
host clock and the guest clock in a virtualized system change the
read_persistent_clock function to return a struct timespec.
