Daniel Lezcano ca46acb981 clocksource/drivers/meson6_timer.c: Convert init function to return error
The init functions do not return any error. They behave as the following:

  - panic, thus leading to a kernel crash while another timer may work and
       make the system boot up correctly

  or

  - print an error and let the caller unaware if the state of the system

Change that by converting the init functions to return an error conforming
to the CLOCKSOURCE_OF_RET prototype.

Proper error handling (rollback, errno value) will be changed later case
by case, thus this change just return back an error or success in the init
function.

Viresh Kumar 40117bd559 clockevents/drivers/meson6: Migrate to new 'set-state' interface
Migrate meson6 driver to the new 'set-state' interface provided by
clockevents core, the earlier 'set-mode' interface is marked obsolete
now.

This also enables us to implement callbacks for new states of clockevent
devices, for example: ONESHOT_STOPPED.

Carlo Caione e4a6b37875 ARM: meson6: clocksource: Add Meson6 timer support
Meson6 SoCs are equipped with 5 32-bit timers, called TIMER_A, TIMER_B,
TIMER_C, TIMER_D and TIMER_E.

The driver is providing clocksource support for the 32-bit counter using
TIMER_E. Clockevents are also supported using TIMER_A.
