The current arch_timer only support accessing through CP15 interface.
Add support for ARM processors that only support IO mapped register

The original file is 360 lines. It doesn't really seem like there's a
lot of overlap and I wonder if it is worth the extra overhead.

The first field in the gic interrupts binding already defines this.
Is there a generic way to extract that information from the interrupts binding. I saw Chris Smith's patch that adds irq_is_per_cpu function. Perhaps we can use that once it is merged ?

This timer is fundamentally different h/w. You need a new compatible string.
I think that the timer is the same, but it just has a different interface. Do you still think we need a new compatible string ?

This whole function seems a bit pointless as it only adds timer_base.

I tried to the keep the functions similar to the cp15 interface ones. Is there something else you suggest doing ?

Thanks,
