* MIPS: Move timer code to arch/mips/cpu/$(CPU)/Shinya Kuribayashi2011-05-10-0/+98
Current timer routines (arch/mips/lib/timer.c) are implemented assuming that MIPS32 coprocessor (CP0) resources, Counter and Compare registers in this case, are available. But this doesn't always work. We need to make sure that all MIPS-based systems don't necessarily use CP0 counter/compare registers as time keeping resources. And some MIPS variant processors might come with different hardware specs with genuine MIPS32 CP0 registers. With this change, each $(CPU)/ directory can have its own timer code.
