clocksource/drivers/arm_global_timer: Implement rate compensation whenever source clock changes

This patch adds rate change notification support for the parent clock;
should that clock change, then we try to adjust the our prescaler in order
to compensate (i.e. we adjust to still get the same timer frequency).

This is loosely based on what it's done in timer-cadence-ttc. timer-sun51,
mips-gic-timer and smp_twd.c also seem to look at their parent clock rate
and to perform some kind of adjustment whenever needed.

In this particular case we have only one single counter and prescaler for
all clocksource, clockevent and timer_delay, and we just update it for all
(i.e. we don't let it go and call clockevents_update_freq() to notify to
the kernel that our rate has changed).

Note that, there is apparently no other way to fixup things, because once
we call register_current_timer_delay(), specifying the timer rate, it seems
that that rate is not supposed to change ever.

In order for this mechanism to work, we have to make assumptions about how
much the initial clock is supposed to eventually decrease from the initial
one, and set our initial prescaler to a value that we can eventually
decrease enough to compensate. We provide an option in KConfig for this.

In case we end up in a situation in which we are not able to compensate the
parent clock change, we fail returning NOTIFY_BAD.

This fixes a real-world problem with Zynq arch not being able to use this
driver and CPU_FREQ at the same time (because ARM global timer is fed by
the CPU clock, which may keep changing when CPU_FREQ is enabled).
