Looks like not all firmware versions used for MSM8939 program the timer
frequency for both broadcast/MMIO timers, causing a WARNING at runtime:

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at kernel/time/clockevents.c:38 cev_delta2ns+0x74/0x90
pc : cev_delta2ns+0x74/0x90
lr : clockevents_config.part.0+0x64/0x8c
Call trace:
 cev_delta2ns+0x74/0x90
 clockevents_config_and_register+0x20/0x34
 arch_timer_mem_of_init+0x374/0x534
 timer_probe+0x88/0x110
 time_init+0x14/0x4c
 start_kernel+0x2c0/0x640

Unfortunately there is no way to fix the firmware on most of these
devices since it's proprietary and signed. As a workaround, specify the
clock-frequency explicitly in the DT to fix the warning.
