This patch series adds support for the global timer with the Cortex
A5. This is relatively simple patch series and mainly consists of:

 - Update a check in the drive probe code for an unusable global timer
   to be non-specific to the A9.
 - Add the appropriate device tree node and Kconfig options.
 - Add a compatible node for the specific A5 global timer in the DT
   binding.

Changes since v1
================
- Retain information in the DT binding documentation that the driver
  will only work on a A9 r0p2 and above.

Any comments welcome.
