MIPS: Fix CP0 counter erratum detection for R4k CPUs

Fix the discrepancy between the two places we check for the CP0 counter
erratum in along with the incorrect comparison of the R4400 revision
number against 0x30 which matches none and consistently consider all
R4000 and R4400 processors affected, as documented in processor errata
publications[1][2][3], following the mapping between CP0 PRId register
values and processor models:

PRId | Processor Model
---------+--------------------
00000422 | R4000 Revision 2.2
00000430 | R4000 Revision 3.0
00000440 | R4400 Revision 1.0
00000450 | R4400 Revision 2.0
00000460 | R4400 Revision 3.0

No other revision of either processor has ever been spotted.

Contrary to what has been stated in commit ce202cbb9e0b ("[MIPS] Assume
R4000/R4400 newer than 3.0 don't have the mfc0 count bug") marking the
CP0 counter as buggy does not preclude it from being used as either a
clock event or a clock source device. It just cannot be used as both at
a time, because in that case clock event interrupts will be occasionally
lost, and the use as a clock event device takes precedence.

Compare against 0x4ff in `can_use_mips_counter' so that a single machine
instruction is produced.

mips: Add udelay lpj numbers adjustment

Loops-per-jiffies is a special number which represents a number of
noop-loop cycles per CPU-scheduler quantum - jiffies. As you
understand aside from CPU-specific implementation it depends on
the CPU frequency. So when a platform has the CPU frequency fixed,
we have no problem and the current udelay interface will work
just fine. But as soon as CPU-freq driver is enabled and the cores
frequency changes, we'll end up with distorted udelay's. In order
to fix this we have to accordinly adjust the per-CPU udelay_val
(the same as the global loops_per_jiffy) number. This can be done
in the CPU-freq transition event handler. We subscribe to that event
in the MIPS arch time-inititalization method.

MIPS: Convert update_persistent_clock() to update_persistent_clock64()

Since struct timespec is not y2038 safe on 32bit machines, this patch
converts update_persistent_clock() to update_persistent_clock64() using
struct timespec64.

The rtc_mips_set_time() and rtc_mips_set_mmss() interfaces were using
'unsigned long' type that is not y2038 safe on 32bit machines, moreover
there is only one platform implementing rtc_mips_set_time() and two
platforms implementing rtc_mips_set_mmss(), so we can just make them each
implement update_persistent_clock64() directly, to get that helper out
of the common mips code by removing rtc_mips_set_time() and
rtc_mips_set_mmss() interfaces.

MIPS: Return -ENODEV from weak implementation of rtc_mips_set_time

The sync_cmos_clock function in kernel/time/ntp.c first tries to update
the internal clock of the cpu by calling the "update_persistent_clock64"
architecture specific function. If this returns -ENODEV, it then tries
to update an external RTC using "rtc_set_ntp_time".

On the mips architecture, the weak implementation of the underlying
function would return 0 if it wasn't overridden. This meant that the
sync_cmos_clock function would never try to update an external RTC
(if both CONFIG_GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE and CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC are
configured)

Returning -ENODEV instead, means that an external RTC will be tried.

This is a fix for a bug introduced with commit
447cdf2628b59aa513a42785450b348dced26d8a, submitted as archived here:
http://www.linux-mips.org/cgi-bin/mesg.cgi?a=linux-mips&i=20080312235002.c717dde3.yoichi_yuasa%40tripeaks.co.jp
regrettably with no further explanation.

The issue is with the CP0 Count register read erratum present on R4000 and
some R4400 processors. If this erratum is present, then a read from this
register that happens around the time it reaches the value stored in the
CP0 Compare register causes a CP0 timer interrupt that is supposed to
happen when the values in the two registers match to be missed. The
implication for the chips affected is the CP0 timer can be used either as
a source of a timer interrupt (a clock event) or as a source of a
high-resolution counter (a clock source), but not both at a time.

The erratum does not affect timer interrupt operation itself, because in
this case the CP0 Count register is only read while the timer interrupt
has already been raised, while high-resolution counter references happen
at random times.

Additionally some systems apparently have issues with the timer interrupt
line being routed externally and not following the usual CP0 Count/Compare
semantics. In this case we don't want to use the R4k clock event.

We've meant to address the erratum and the timer interrupt routing issue
in time_init, however the commit referred to above broke our solution.
What we currently have is we enable the R4k clock source if the R4k clock
event initialization has succeeded (the timer is present and has no timer
interrupt routing issue) or there is no CP0 Count register read erratum.
Which gives the following boolean matrix:

clock event | count erratum => clock source
------------+---------------+--------------
0 | 0 | 1 (OK)
0 | 1 | 0 (bug!) -> no interference, could use
1 | 0 | 1 (OK)
1 | 1 | 1 (bug!) -> can't use, interference

What we want instead is to enable the R4k clock source if there is no CP0
Count register read erratum (obviously) or the R4k clock event
initialization has *failed* -- because in the latter case we won't be
using the timer interrupt anyway, so we don't care about any interference
CP0 Count reads might cause with the interrupt. This corresponds to the
following boolean matrix:

clock event | count erratum => clock source
------------+---------------+--------------
0 | 0 | 1
0 | 1 | 1
1 | 0 | 1
1 | 1 | 0

This is implemented here, effectively reverting the problematic commit,
and a short explanation is given next to code modified so that the
rationale is known to future readers and confusion is prevented from
happening here again.

It is worth noting that mips_clockevent_init returns 0 upon success while
cpu_has_mfc0_count_bug returns 0 upon failure. This is because the former
function returns an error code while the latter returns a boolean value.
To signify the difference I have therefore chosen to compare the result of
the former call explicitly against 0.

The __weak definition of plat_time_init was only ever meant to be a
migration helper to keep platforms that don't have a plat_time_init
compiling. A few greps says that all platforms now supply their own
plat_time_init() so the weak definition is no longer needed. So I
instead delete it.

[MIPS] Handle R4000/R4400 mfc0 from count register.

The R4000 and R4400 have an errata where if the cp0 count register is read
in the exact moment when it matches the compare register no interrupt will
be generated.

This bug may be triggered if the cp0 count register is being used as
clocksource and the compare interrupt as clockevent. So a simple
workaround is to avoid using the compare for both facilities on the
affected CPUs.

This is different from the workaround suggested in the old errata documents;
at some opportunity probably the official version should be implemented
and tested. Another thing to find out is which processor versions
exactly are affected. I only have errata documents upto R4400 V3.0
available so for the moment the code treats all R4000 and R4400 as broken.

This is potencially a problem for some machines that have no other decent
clocksource available; this workaround will cause them to fall back to
another clocksource, worst case the "jiffies" source.
