[PATCH] clockevents: add core functionality

Architectures register their clock event devices, in the clock events core.
Users of the clockevents core can get clock event devices for their use.  The
clockevents core code provides notification mechanisms for various clock
related management events.

This allows to control the clock event devices without the architectures
having to worry about the details of function assignment.  This is also a
preliminary for high resolution timers and dynamic ticks to allow the core
code to control the clock functionality without intrusive changes to the
architecture code.
