[dev][arm_generic_timer] Add suspend hook and supporting routines

On some platforms the state of arm-deneric timer might be lost
in suspend as well as some (deeper) cpu idle related states.
This patch adds routine to export timer state in raw and more
generic form and implements suspend hooks that saves and restores
timer state in per cpu variable across suspend/resume cycle.

Builds

Build Status

To build and test for ARM on linux

  1. install or build qemu. v2.4 and above is recommended.
  2. install gcc for embedded arm (see note 1)
  3. run scripts/do-qemuarm (from the lk directory)
  4. you should see ‘welcome to lk/MP’

This will get you a interactive prompt into LK which is running in qemu arm machine ‘virt’ emulation. type ‘help’ for commands.

note 1: for ubuntu: sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-none-eabi or fetch a prebuilt toolchain from http://newos.org/toolchains/arm-eabi-5.3.0-Linux-x86_64.tar.xz
