[PATCH v9 3/6] clocksource: stm32: only use 32 bits timers

[Benjamin Gaignard]

From: Benjamin Gaignard <benjamin.gaignard at linaro.org>

The clock driving counters is at 90MHz so the maximum period
for 16 bis counters is around 728us (2^16 / 90.000.000).
For 32 bits counters this period is close 47 secondes which is
more acceptable.

When using 16 bits counters the kernel may not be able to boot
because it has a too high overhead compare to the clockevent period.
Downgrading the rating of 16bits counter won't change anything
to this problem so this patch remove 16 bits counters support
and makes sure that they won't be probed anymore.
