Daniel Lezcano 0cc7afc6e0 clocksource/drivers/mps2-timer: 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.

Vladimir Murzin 0302637f18 clockevents/driversi/mps2: add MPS2 Timer driver
MPS2 platform has simple 32 bits general purpose countdown timers.

The driver uses the first detected timer as a clocksource and the rest
of the timers as a clockevent
