Subject: [PATCH] ARM: timer-sp: ensure interrupt is cleared at sp804_clockevents_init

When sp804 is registerd as clock event device, it may not be added to
tick device if the higher rated device is already registerd. In this case,
for uncertan reason, inetrrupt is occured without event_handler it cause
kernel panic. So Interrupt should be cleared before clockevent is registered.
