Subject: [PATCH 2/5] riscv: nommu: use CSR_TIME* for get_cycles* implementation

Per riscv privileged spec, "The time CSR is a read-only shadow of the
memory-mapped mtime register", "On RV32I the timeh CSR is a read-only
shadow of the upper 32 bits of the memory-mapped mtime register, while
time shadows only the lower 32 bits of mtime." Since get_cycles() only
reads the timer, it's fine to use CSR_TIME to implement get_cycles().
