The smp_twd clockevents driver currently enables the local timer PPI
before the clockevents device is registered. This can lead to a kernel
panic if a spurious timer interrupt is generated before registration
has completed since the kernel will treat it as an IPI timer.
This patch moves the clockevents device registration before the IRQ
unmasking so that we can always handle timer interrupts once they can
occur.

To get hundredths of MHz the rate needs to be divided by 10'000.
Here is an example:
twd_timer_rate = 123456789
Before the patch:
twd_timer_rate / 1000000 = 123
(twd_timer_rate / 1000000) % 100 = 23
Result: 123.23MHz.
After being fixed:
twd_timer_rate / 1000000 = 123
(twd_timer_rate / 10000) % 100 = 45
Result: 123.45MHz.

Ensure that the twd timer reload value is reprogrammed each time we
enter periodic mode. This ensures that the reload value is always
reset correctly.

The fraction of MHz was not being displayed correctly as the calculation
was a factor of 10 out. Fix this.

When a CPU is hot unplugged, the generic tick code cleans up the
clock event device, but fails to call down to the device's set_mode
function to actually shut the device down.
To work around this, we've historically had a local_timer_stop()
callback out of the hotplug code. However, this adds needless
complexity when we have the clock event device itself available.
Explicitly call the clock event device's set_mode function with
CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED, so that the hardware can be cleanly shutdown
without any special external callbacks. When/if the generic code
is fixed, percpu_timer_stop() can be killed off.

Avoid adding nasty genirq-specific code to local timers to enable PPI
interrupts. Instead, provide a gic function to do this.

The TWD local timers are unable to wake up the CPU when it is placed
into a low power mode, eg. C3. Therefore, we need to adapt things
such that the TWD code can cope with this.
We do this by always providing a broadcast tick function, and marking
the fact that the TWD local timer will stop in low power modes. This
means that when the CPU is placed into a low power mode, the core
timer code marks this fact, and allows an IPI to be given to the core.

This moves the TWD register set of MPcore to a common
existing file so that watchdog driver can access it

Since this IRQ descriptor doesn't have an action registered, it is
allowed for probing via probe_irq_on/off() and it will be disabled by
the latter function. This patch sets the IRQ_NOPROBE status bit for the
local timer descriptor.

Fix:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x247c): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpu_idle() to the function .cpuexit.text:cpu_die()
The function cpu_idle() references a function in an exit section.
Often the function cpu_die() has valid usage outside the exit section
and the fix is to remove the __cpuexit annotation of cpu_die.
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.cpuexit.text+0x3c): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpu_die() to the function .cpuinit.text:secondary_start_kernel()
The function __cpuexit cpu_die() references
a function __cpuinit secondary_start_kernel().
This is often seen when error handling in the exit function
uses functionality in the init path.
The fix is often to remove the __cpuinit annotation of
secondary_start_kernel() so it may be used outside an init section.
Sam says:
> The annotation of cpu_die() is wrong.
> To be annotated __cpuexit the function shall:
> - be used in exit context and only in exit context with HOTPLUG_CPU=n
> - be used outside exit context with HOTPLUG_CPU=y
So, this also means __cpu_disable(), __cpu_die() and twd_timer_stop() are
also wrong. However, removing __cpuexit from cpu_die() creates:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x6834): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpu_die() to the function .cpuinit.text:secondary_start_kernel()
The function cpu_die() references
the function __cpuinit secondary_start_kernel().
This is often because cpu_die lacks a __cpuinit
annotation or the annotation of secondary_start_kernel is wrong.
so fix this using __ref.
