ARC: udelay: fix inline assembler by adding LP_COUNT to clobber list

commit 3c7c7a2f ("ARC: Don't use "+l" inline asm constraint")
modified the inline assembly to setup LP_COUNT register manually and NOT
rely on gcc to do it (with the +l inline assembler contraint hint, now
being retired in the compiler)

However the fix was flawed as we didn't add LP_COUNT to asm clobber list,
meaning gcc doesn't know that LP_COUNT or zero-delay-loops are in action
in the inline asm.

This resulted in some fun - as nested ZOL loops were being generared

| mov lp_count,250000 ;16 # tmp235,
| lp .L__GCC__LP14 #		<======= OUTER LOOP (gcc generated)
|   .L14:
|   ld r2, [r5] # MEM[(volatile u32 *)prephitmp_43], w
|   dmb 1
|   breq r2, -1, @.L21 #, w,,
|   bbit0 r2,1,@.L13 # w,,
|   ld r4,[r7] ;25 # loops_per_jiffy, loops_per_jiffy
|   mpymu r3,r4,r6 #, loops_per_jiffy, tmp234
|
|   mov lp_count, r3 #		 <====== INNER LOOP (from inline asm)
|   lp 1f
| 	 nop
|   1:
|   nop_s
| .L__GCC__LP14: ; loop end, start is @.L14 #,

This caused issues with drivers relying on sane behaviour of udelay
friends.

With LP_COUNT added to clobber list, gcc doesn't generate the outer
loop in say above case.
