clocksource/drivers/exynos_mct: Prioritise Arm arch timer on arm64
All arm64 CPUs feature an architected timer, which offers a relatively low-latency interface to a per-cpu clocksource and timer. For the most part, using this interface is a no-brainer, with the exception of SoCs where it cannot be used to wake up from deep idle state (i.e. CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP is set). On the contrary, the Exynos MCT is extremely slow to access yet can be used as a wakeup source. In preparation for using the Exynos MCT as a potential wakeup timer for the Arm architected timer, reduce its ratings so that the architected timer is preferred. This effectively reverts the decision made in 6282edb7 ("clocksource/drivers/exynos_mct: Increase priority over ARM arch timer") for arm64, as the reasoning for the original change was to work around a 32-bit SoC design.
