In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,
all clockevent device drivers must set ->min_delta_ticks and
->max_delta_ticks rather than ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns: a
clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.
Make the numachip clockevent driver initialize these fields properly.
This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the
clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns
and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will
purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this
driver.

Fix Numachip build conflict from:
ce2e572 x86/numachip: Introduce Numachip2 timer mechanisms
drivers/built-in.o:(.discard+0x1b): multiple definition of `__pcpu_unique_cpu_ced'
arch/x86/built-in.o:(.discard+0xa0da): first defined here
Ensure cpu_ced is unique by prefixing with 'numachip2'.

Add 1GHz 64-bit Numachip2 clocksource timer support for accurate
system-wide timekeeping, as core TSCs are unsynchronised.
Additionally, add a per-core clockevent mechanism that interrupts via the
platform IPI vector after a programmed period.
[ tglx: Taking it through x86 due to dependencies ]
