[PATCH] ARM: OMAP2+: timer: Fix crash due to wrong arg to __omap_dm_timer_read_counter

In dmtimer_read_sched_clock(), wrong argument was getting passed to
__omap_dm_timer_read_counter() function call; instead of "&clksrc",
we were passing "clksrc.io_base", which results into kernel crash.

To reproduce kernel crash, just disable the CONFIG_OMAP_32K_TIMER config
option (and DEBUG_LL) and build/boot the kernel.
This will use dmtimer as a kernel clocksource and lead to kernel
crash during boot  -
