The KVM_HOST_FREQ Kconfig symbol was used by KVM guest kernels to
override the timer frequency calculation to a value based on the host
frequency. Now that the KVM timer emulation is implemented independent
of the host timer frequency and defaults to 100MHz, adjust the working
of CONFIG_KVM_HOST_FREQ to match.
The Kconfig symbol now specifies the guest timer frequency directly, and
has been renamed accordingly to KVM_GUEST_TIMER_FREQ. It now defaults to
100MHz too and the help text is updated to make it clear that a zero
value will allow the normal timer frequency calculation to take place
(based on the emulated RTC).

The RTC is used on Malta to estimate the clock frequency of the CPU &
optionally the GIC. However the kernel previously did not initialise the
RTC, instead relying upon the bootloader having done so. In order to
minimise dependencies which the kernel has upon the bootloader this
patch causes the kernel to initialise the RTC itself prior to making use
of it.

This variable was introduced by commit 96348c8f (of Ralf's historic
Linux/MIPS repository) "Remaining fixes for MIPS's eval boards." but
I don't see any use of it either then or now. Remove it.

commit 3747069b25e419f6b51395f48127e9812abc3596 upstream.
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
and are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get
rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
Here, we remove all the MIPS __cpuinit from C code and __CPUINIT
from asm files. MIPS is interesting in this respect, because there
are also uasm users hiding behind their own renamed versions of the
__cpuinit macros.

Reorganize some of the GIC clocksource driver code. Below is a list of
the various changes.
* No longer select CSRC_GIC by default for Malta platform.
* Limit choice for either the GIC or R4K clocksource, not both.
* Change location in Makefile.
* Created new 'gic_read_count' function in common 'irq-gic.c' file.
* Change 'git_hpt_read' function in 'csrc-gic.c' to use new function.
* Surround GIC specific code in Malta platform code with #ifdef's.
* Only initialize the GIC clocksource if it was selected. Original
code called it unconditionally if a GIC was found.

Move the global variable 'gic_frequency' to be defined in the file
'arch/mips/kernel/irq-gic.c' instead of defining it individually
for each platform making use of the GIC. Also change the type to
be an unsigned integer instead of signed.

The persistent clock of some architectures (e.g. s390) have a
better granularity than seconds. To reduce the delta between the
host clock and the guest clock in a virtualized system change the
read_persistent_clock function to return a struct timespec.
