[PATCH v2] ARM: shmobile: timer: Drop support for Cortex A8

Commit edf4100906044225 ("ARM: shmobile: sh7372 dtsi: Remove Legacy
file") removed the DTS for the last shmobile SoC with a Cortex A8 CPU
core (sh7372 aka SH-Mobile AP4), hence drop support for it in the
loops-per-jiffy preset code.

As "div" is always 1 for supported contemporary ARM processors, we can
simplify the code:
  - Absorb shmobile_setup_delay_hz(), which was always called with
    mult = div = 1,
  - Return earlier if the Cortex A7/A15 arch timer exists and support is
    enabled.

v2:
  - Clean up the code, as requested by Olof Johansson,
  - Tested on r8a73a4/ape6evm (CA15) with CONFIG_HAVE_ARM_ARCH_TIMER=n,
    r8a7740/armadillo (CA9), and r8a7791/koelsch (CA15) with
    CONFIG_HAVE_ARM_ARCH_TIMER=y.
