Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Convert cris to arch_gettimeoffset()

This patch converts cris to use GENERIC_TIME via the arch_getoffset()
infrastructure, reducing the amount of arch specific code we need to
maintain.

The cris architecture is one of the last 3 arches that need to be
converted.

This patch applies on top of Linus' current -git tree

I've taken my best swing at converting this, but I'm not 100% confident
I got it right. My cross-compiler is now out of date (gcc4.2) so I
wasn't able to check if it compiled. Any assistance from arch
maintainers or testers to get this merged would be great.

thanks
-john
