sched_clock() is yet another blocker on the road to the single
image. This patch implements an idea by Russell King:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-omap/msg49561.html
Instead of asking the platform to implement both sched_clock()
itself and the rollover callback, simply register a read()
function, and let the ARM code care about sched_clock() itself,
the conversion to ns and the rollover. sched_clock() uses
this read() function as an indirection to the platform code.
If the platform doesn't provide a read(), the code falls back
to the jiffy counter (just like the default sched_clock).
This allow some simplifications and possibly some footprint gain
when multiple platforms are compiled in. Among the drawbacks,
the removal of the *_fixed_sched_clock optimization which could
negatively impact some platforms (sa1100, tegra, versatile
and omap).
Tested on 11MPCore, OMAP4 and Tegra.

picoXcell is a family of femtocell devices with an ARM application
processor and picoArray DSP processor array.
This patch adds support for picoXcell boards to be booted using the
device tree registering the VIC's, UART's and timers.
v3: - fixup vic compatible string in binding
v2: - cleanup empty mach headers
- convert to of_platform_populate()
- simplify uncompress.h
- split vic node into 2 devices
- add missing __initconst attributes
