CLOCKSOURCE: mips-gic: Allow GIC clock to be specified in device-tree

As an alternative to the "clock-frequency" property, allow the GIC
timer operating clock to be specified in the device-tree instead.
This is useful on systems which use common clock or where the GIC
is not fixed to a particular frequency and is instead, for example,
derived from the CPU clock.
