[ARM] 3855/1: Add generic time support

This patch adds Generic time-of-day support for the ARM architecture.

The support is currently added using #ifdef's so that it can support
sub-arches that do not (yet) have a clocksource added.  As sub-arches
add clocksource support, they should 'select GENERIC_TIME'
