mvebu: backport mainline patches from kernel 3.13

This is a backport of the patches accepted to the Linux mainline related to
mvebu SoC (Armada XP and Armada 370) between Linux v3.12, and Linux v3.13.
This work mainly covers:

* Finishes work for sharing the pxa nand driver(drivers/mtd/nand/pxa3xx_nand.c)
  between the PXA family, and the Armada family.
* timer initialization update, and access function for the Armada family.
* Generic IRQ handling backporting.
* Some bug fixes.

+Subject: [PATCH 162/203] mtd: nand: pxa3xx: Clear need_wait flag when starting
+ a command
+
+Currently the driver assumes all commands will eventually trigger a RnB
+transition, and thus a "device is ready" IRQ.
+
+This assumption means that on every issued command, the dev_ready completion
+handler is init'ed and the need_wait flag is set.
+
+However this is incorrect: some commands (such as NAND_CMD_STATUS) don't
+make the device 'busy' and thus a RnB transition never occurs.
+Given, the NAND core never calls waitfunc() after such commands, this
+is not a problem.
+
+Therefore, it's possible to only clear the need_wait flag on every command
+that is started.
+
+This fixes a current bug that can be reproduced on PXA boards by writing
+blank (all 0xff'ed) to a page:
+
+  1. The kernel issues NAND_CMD_STATUS and sets need_wait=1. The flag
+     won't be cleared for this command since no RnB transition is
+     involved.
+
+  2. NAND_CMD_PAGEPROG is issued but since the data is blank, the driver
+     decides not to execute the command (and no IRQ activity is
+     involved).
+
+  3. The NAND core calls waitfunc() and waits for the dev_ready
+     completion, which will never end since the device _is_ already ready.
