8e19608e8b clocksource: pass clocksource to read() callback
Pass clocksource pointer to the read() callback for clocksources.  This
allows us to share the callback between multiple instances.

779e7d41ad MIPS: make cp0 counter clocksource/event usable as fallback.
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.

940f6b48a1 [MIPS] Only build r4k clocksource for systems that work ok with it.
In particular as-is it's not suited for multicore and mutiprocessors
systems where there is on guarantee that the counter are synchronized
or running from the same clock at all.  This broke Sibyte and probably
others since the "[MIPS] Handle R4000/R4400 mfc0 from count register."
