Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Handle time offset prior to epoch

Since arch timer can be enabled at any time during boot, this patch
changes to invoke variant sched_clock_register_epoch() so it can
retrieve time offset prior to epoch (in nanosecond).

Arch timer driver doesn't directly use this time offset, but it needs to
pass this value to Perf framework to allow Perf tool to use it for
timestamp calibration.  For this purpose, this patch introduces an API
arch_timer_get_epoch_offset() which returns the time offset for arch
timer's counter.
