The init functions do not return any error. They behave as the following:
- panic, thus leading to a kernel crash while another timer may work and
make the system boot up correctly
or
- print an error and let the caller unaware if the state of the system
Change that by converting the init functions to return an error conforming
to the CLOCKSOURCE_OF_RET prototype.
Proper error handling (rollback, errno value) will be changed later case
by case, thus this change just return back an error or success in the init
function.

Migrate zevio driver to the new 'set-state' interface provided by
clockevents core, the earlier 'set-mode' interface is marked obsolete
now.
This also enables us to implement callbacks for new states of clockevent
devices, for example: ONESHOT_STOPPED.

This patch adds a clocksource/clockevent driver for the timer found on some
models in the TI-Nspire calculator series. The timer has two 16bit subtimers
within its memory mapped I/O interface but only the first can generate
interrupts. The first subtimer is used to generate clockevents but only if an
interrupt number and register is given.
The interrupt acknowledgement mechanism is a little strange because the
interrupt mask and acknowledge registers are located in another memory mapped
I/O peripheral. The address of this register is passed to the driver through
device tree bindings.
The second subtimer is used as a clocksource because it isn't capable of
generating an interrupt. This subtimer is always added.
