When the timer is configured in posted mode, we need to check the write-
posted status register (TWPS) before writing to the register.

We now check TWPS after the write starting with commit 52762fbd
("clocksource/drivers/timer-ti-dm: Add clockevent and clocksource
support").

For example, in the TRM for am571x the following is documented in chapter
"22.2.4.13.1.1 Write Posting Synchronization Mode":

"For each register, a status bit is provided in the timer write-posted
 status (TWPS) register. In this mode, it is mandatory that software check
 this status bit before any write access. If a write is attempted to a
 register with a previous access pending, the previous access is discarded
 without notice."

The regression happened when I updated the code to use standard read/write
accessors for the driver instead of using __omap_dm_timer_load_start().
We have__omap_dm_timer_load_start() check the TWPS status correctly using
__omap_dm_timer_write().
