Subject: [PATCH] RISC-V: Check clint_time_val before use

The NoMMU kernel is broken for QEMU virt machine from Linux-5.9-rc6
because the get_cycles() and friends are called very early from
rand_initialize() before CLINT driver is probed. To fix this, we
should check clint_time_val before use in get_cycles() and friends.

Fixes: d5be89a8d118 ("RISC-V: Resurrect the MMIO timer implementation
for M-mode systems")
