From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal at milecki.pl>
BCA is a big set / family of Broadcom devices sharing multiple hardware
blocks. One of them is timer that actually exists in two versions. It's
a part of TWD MFD block.
Add binding for it so SoCs can be properly described. Linux (and
probably any other OS) doesn't really seem to need a driver for it. it
may be needed for bootloaders (e.g. U-Boot) though. Especially for SoCs
with CPUs other than Cortex-A9 (which contains arch timers).
