This series addresses two issues with the generic RISC-V timer driver. Patch 1 marks timer_early_get_rate() and timer_early_get_count() as __weak to prevent link conflicts with other drivers (e.g., ACLINT MTIMER) that may also provide their own implementation.
Patch 2 adds proper M‑mode support: timer_early_get_rate() is now defined for M‑mode using RISCV_MMODE_TIMER_FREQ, and timer_early_get_count() is no longer guarded by RISCV_SMODE, making it available whenever CONFIG_TIMER_EARLY is enabled. This is necessary because functions like net_random_ethaddr() rely on get_ticks() which uses timer_early_get_count().
