[PATCH] clocksource: em_sti: Adjust clock event rating to fix SMP broadcast

From: Magnus Damm <damm at opensource.se>

Update the STI rating from 200 to 80 to fix SMP operation with
the ARM broadcast timer. This breakage was introduced by:

f7db706 ARM: 7674/1: smp: Avoid dummy clockevent being preferred over real hardware clock-event

Without this fix SMP operation is broken on EMEV2 since no
broadcast timer interrupts trigger on the secondary CPU cores.
