[PATCH] ARM: ux500: Fix regression while init PM domains

The commit afece3ab9a36 ("PM / Domains: Add time accounting to various
genpd states") causes a boot regression for ux500.

The problem occurs when the ux500 machine code calls pm_genpd_init(), which
since the above change triggers a call to ktime_get(). More precisely,
because ux500 initializes PM domains in the init_IRQ() phase of the boot,
timekeeping has not yet been initialized.

Fix the problem by moving the initialization of the PM domains to after
timekeeping has been initialized.

Note, since the commit afece3ab9a36 ("PM / Domains: Add time accounting to
various genpd states") potentially could cause similar problems for other SoCs,
I have walked through the callers of pm_genpd_init(). At this point I couldn't
find any other SoC having these problems.

Kind regards
Uffe
