This allows us to get rid of some hacky code for SMP.  Get rid of
some cycle counter hackery that's now handled by generic code via
clocksource + clock_event_device objects.

Discontinue use of GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE; rely on the RTC subsystem.

The marvel platform requires that the rtc only be touched from the
boot cpu.  This had been partially implemented with hooks for
get/set_rtc_time, but read/update_persistent_clock were not handled.
Move the hooks from the machine_vec to a special rtc_class_ops struct.

We had read_persistent_clock managing the epoch against which the
rtc hw is based, but this didn't apply to get_rtc_time or set_rtc_time.
This resulted in incorrect values when hwclock(8) gets involved.

Allow the epoch to be set from the kernel command-line, overriding
the autodetection, which is doomed to fail in 2020.  Further, by
implementing the rtc ioctl function, we can expose this epoch to
userland.

Elide the alarm functions that RTC_DRV_CMOS implements.  This was
highly questionable on Alpha, since the interrupt is used by the
system timer.

Use WTINT to wait for the next interrupt.  Squash the WTINT call
if the PALcode doesn't support it (e.g. MILO).  No attempt is yet
made to skip clock ticks during normal scheduling in order to stay
in power down mode longer.

With the 1024Hz default, we spend 50% of QEMU emulation
processing timer interrupts.

When building a generic kernel, do a run-time check on the serial
number, like we do for MILO.  When building a custom kernel, make
this a configure-time check.

We've switched over every architecture that supports SMP to it, so
remove the new useless config variable.

After the last architecture switched to generic hard irqs the config
options HAVE_GENERIC_HARDIRQS & GENERIC_HARDIRQS and the related code
for !CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS can be removed.
