[PATCH] arch_timer: Do not register arch_sys_counter twice

Commit 65cd4f6 (arch_timer: Move to generic sched_clock framework) added
code to register the arch_sys_counter in arch_timer_register() but it is
already registered in arch_counter_register(). This results in the timer
being added to the clocksource list twice, therefore causing an infinite
loop in the list.
Remove the duplicate registration and register the scheduler clock after
the original registration instead.
This fixes a hang during boot on Tegra114 (Cortex-A15).

While I've only tested this on Tegra114, I suspect the same hang during
boot happens for all processors that use this clock source.
