[PATCH 2/4 v2] mach-integrator: clockevent supports oneshot mode

The Integrator AP timer has no problem supporting oneshot
ticks with proper code, so let's do it so we can have
NOHZ configured in for this platform too.

ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Make sure that setting the periodic mode arms and fires a
  periodic timer, and have the oneshot mode leave the timer
  disabled until the .set_next_event occurs.
- Tested in both in explicit periodic and oneshot mode, by
  removing the CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_ONESHOT and testing, and
  removing CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_PERIODIC and testing. In periodic
  mode I get ~6050 timer interrupts per minute, in
  oneshot mode with NOHZ I get ~3066 timer interrups per
  minute so it seems to be working.
