[PATCH 3/9] ARC: clockevent: switch to cpu notifier for clockevent setup

From: Noam Camus <noamc at ezchip.com>

ARC Timers so far have been handled as "legacy" w/o explicit description
in DT. This poses challenge for newer platforms wanting to use them.
This series will eventually help move timers over to DT.

This patch does a small change of using a CPU notifier to set clockevent
on non-boot CPUs. So explicit setup is done only on boot CPU (which will
later be done by DT)

This also helps
 - wean away from arc_request_percpu_irq() which has a design flaw as
   noted in c6317bc7c5ab
   ("ARCv2: perf: Ensure perf intr gets enabled on all cores")
 - Remove exposing timer function to smp.c
