The generic timer count is an incrementing 64bit value and a timer driver
must return an incrementing 64bit value. The DW APB timer only provides a
32bit timer counting down, thus the result must be inverted and converted
to a 64bit value. The current implementation is however missing the 64bit
up-conversion and this results in random timer roll-overs, which in turn
triggers random timeouts throughout the codebase.
This patch adds the missing 64bit up-conversion to fix the issue.

When a driver declares DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag, it wishes to be
bound before relocation. However due to a bug in the DM core,
the flag only takes effect when devices are statically declared
via U_BOOT_DEVICE(). This bug has been fixed recently by commit
"dm: core: Respect drivers with the DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag in
lists_bind_fdt()", but with the fix, it has a side effect that
all existing drivers that declared DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag will
be bound before relocation now. This may expose potential boot
failure on some boards due to insufficient memory during the
pre-relocation stage.
To mitigate this potential impact, the following changes are
implemented:
- Remove DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag in the driver, if the driver
only supports configuration from device tree (OF_CONTROL)
- Keep DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag in the driver only if the device
is statically declared via U_BOOT_DEVICE()
- Surround DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag with OF_CONTROL check, for
drivers that support both statically declared devices and
configuration from device tree

Add timer driver for the Designware APB Timer IP. This is present
for example on the Altera SoCFPGA chips.
