Without a time source the read_poll_timeout functions will deadlock in
the PBL if the break condition is never met. This series introduces the
necessary timing functions in the PBL for arches/socs implementing
PBL_CLOCKSOURCE, which is every ARMv8 SoC as they implement an
architected timer and selected ARMv7 SoCs.

Changes in v3:
- Added PBL constructor support for ARM/ARM64/RISC-V
- Changed the implementation to PBL_CLOCKSOURCE
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260811-feature-pbl-get-time-ns-v2-0-754ee021b19d@pengutronix.de
Changes in v2:
- Strictly guard the pbl timer support on 32bit ARM for ARMv7 only builds
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250121-feature-pbl-get-time-ns-v1-0-c3d493397846@pengutronix.de
