Fsl_ftm_timer.c is only for system to provide a clock driver. FTM ip-block can be used
by other functions such as PWM. I think we should not put all of functions into a .c file.
So ftm0 alarm function as a specific block driver in SOC dir.

The framework of clocksource not provide sys interface to set alarm. And codes of ftm0-alarm
not touch on clocksource framework.

Yes, now only a driver. My DT depend on LS1 device tree patches, now LS1 DT is upstreaming but not apply.
After LS1 DT apply, I will add ftm alarm device node.
