Now that timekeeping is protected by its own locks, rename
the xtime_lock to jifffies_lock to better describe what it
protects.

The i8253 clockevent & clocksource driver uses PIT_LATCH
except for two cases where it uses LATCH:
1)
/* VIA686a test code... reset the latch if count > max + 1 */
if (count > LATCH) {
LATCH is based on CLOCK_TICK_RATE which is defined as
PIT_TICK_RATE on x86 so this should just be the later.
2)
...
switch (mode) {
case CLOCK_EVT_MODE_PERIODIC:
/* binary, mode 2, LSB/MSB, ch 0 */
outb_p(0x34, PIT_MODE);
outb_p(LATCH & 0xff , PIT_CH0); /* LSB */
outb_p(LATCH >> 8 , PIT_CH0); /* MSB */
...
MIPS and ARM are the only other arches that use this driver. In
the MIPS case CLOCK_TICK_RATE is defined as the same value as
PIT_TICK_RATE. For ARM, the only machine that uses it is
Footbridge which has a totally bogus CLOCK_TICK_RATE according
to the comments. Furthermore, the clockevent_i8253_init()
initializes the clockevent with PIT_TIC_RATE, so there's
no reason to use the generic LATCH.
This is part of work to remove and depecrate the global
CLOCK_TICK_RATE symbol.

arm, mips and x86 implement i8253 based clockevents. All the same code
copied. Create a common implementation in drivers/clocksource/i8253.c.
About time to rename drivers/clocksource/ to something else.

Now that all extra ifdeffed implementations are gone, depend the lock
export on PCSPKR_PLATFORM

Move them to drivers/clocksource/i8253.c and remove the
implementations in arch/
[ tglx: Avoid the extra file in lib - folded arch patches in. The
export will become conditional in a later step ]

This is based upon both arch/arm/mach-footbridge/isa-timer.c and
arch/x86/kernel/i8253.c.
