Subject: clocksource: Exynos_mct: Register clock event after request_irq()

commit 8db6e5104b77de5d0b7002b95069da0992a34be9 upstream.

After hotplugging CPU1 the first call of interrupt handler for CPU1
oneshot timer was called on CPU0 because it fired before setting IRQ
affinity. Affected are SoCs where Multi Core Timer interrupts are
shared (SPI), e.g. Exynos 4210.

During setup of the MCT timers the clock event device should be
registered after setting the affinity for interrupt. This will prevent
starting the timer too early.
