x86, mrst: Fix APB timer per cpu clockevent

The current APB timer code incorrectly registers a static copy of the
clockevent device for the boot CPU. The per cpu clockevent should be
used instead.

This bug was hidden by zero-initialized data; as such it did not get
exposed in testing, but was discovered by code review.
