Reuse the gd->tbl value for timestamp and add gd->lastinc for lastinc bss values in the arm1136 timer driver for mx31 and omap24xx
The usage of bss values in drivers before initialisation of bss is forbid> den. In that special case some data in .rel.dyn gets corrupted.
This patch is similiar to the patch Dirk Behme posted for the armv7/omap-common/timer.c
Tested on the mx31 based qong board

Should I pull this into v2010.12, or should we rather wait for amore general solution and fix it in the next release?
I vote for pulling this into the v2010.12 release, beause it is a bugfix and we get a working code with elf relocation(conceding the patch is not a perfekt solution, but working)
bye, Heiko
