[PATCH v2 17/19] OMAP4: cpuidle: Switch to gptimer from twd in deeper C-states.

CPU local timer(TWD) stops when the CPU is transitioning into
deeper C-States. Since these timers are not wakeup capable, we
need the wakeup capable global timer to program the wakeup time
depending on the next timer expiry.

It can be handled by registering a global wakeup capable timer along
with local timers marked with (mis)feature flag CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP.
Then notify the clock events layer from idle code using
CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ENTER/EXIT).
