[PATCH Resend 2/3] clocksource: Add missing dependency on CONFIG_OF for ARM_ARCH_TIMER

Initialisation of the ARM Arch timer requires data from the DT. There is no
fallback initialisation method and hence selecting ARM_ARCH_TIMER without OF
makes little sense.

Furthermore, doing so causes a build error because the of_* stubs for
!CONFIG_OF do not extend to all of the functions being used by this driver,
and will not be extended unless there are valid use-cases for them to be
(this is not a valid case).
