This is a bug fix for using physical arch timers when
the arch_timer_use_virtual boolean is false. It restores the
arch_counter_get_cntpct() function after removal in
0d651e4e "clocksource: arch_timer: use virtual counters"
We need this on certain ARMv7 systems which are architected like this:
* The firmware doesn't know and doesn't care about hypervisor mode and
we don't want to add the complexity of hypervisor there.
* The firmware isn't involved in SMP bringup or resume.
* The ARCH timer come up with an uninitialized offset between the
virtual and physical counters. Each core gets a different random
offset.
* The device boots in "Secure SVC" mode.
* Nothing has touched the reset value of CNTHCTL.PL1PCEN or
CNTHCTL.PL1PCTEN (both default to 1 at reset)
One example of such as system is RK3288 where it is much simpler to
use the physical counter since there's nobody managing the offset and
each time a core goes down and comes back up it will get reinitialized
to some other random value.
