Adding timer init function in timer-uclass driver to create and
initialize the timer device on platforms where u-boot,dm-pre-reloc
is not used. Since there will be multiple timer devices in the
system, adding a tick-timer node in chosen node to know which
timer device to be used as tick timer in u-boot.

Changes from v3:
* removed dm_timer_init() in lib/time.c as it doesn't add
  anything and simply calls uclass driver's init and also
  renamed timer_init() to dm_timer_init() as many platforms
  calls timer_init() before dm init.
* removed re-declaring of ret in dm_timer_init()

Tested this patch on DRA74x EVM  (logs [1]) with sleep 10 with
minicom timestamps and pushed a branch [2] for testing.

+The chosen node
+---------------
+The chosen node does not represent a real device, but serves as a place
+for passing data like which serial device to used to print the logs etc
+
+
+stdout-path property
+--------------------
+Device trees may specify the device to be used for boot console output
+with a stdout-path property under /chosen.
+
+Example
+-------
+/ {
+       chosen {
+               stdout-path = "/serial@f00:115200";
+       };
+
+       serial@f00 {
+               compatible = "vendor,some-uart";
+               reg = <0xf00 0x10>;
+       };
+};
+
+tick-timer property
+-------------------
+In a system there are multiple timers, specify which timer to be used
+as the tick-timer. Earlier it was hardcoded in the timer driver now
+since device tree has all the timer nodes. Specify which timer to be
+used as tick timer.
+
+Example
+-------
+/ {
+       chosen {
+               tick-timer = "/timer2@f00";
+       };
+
+       timer2@f00 {
+               compatible = "vendor,some-timer";
+               reg = <0xf00 0x10>;
+       };
+};
