[U-Boot] [PATCH] imx-common: timer: fix 32-bit overflow

From: Knut Wohlrab knut.wohlrab@de.bosch.com
The i.MX6 common timer uses the 32-bit variable tbl (time base lower) to record the overflow of the 32-bit counter. I.e. if the counter overflows, the variable tbl does overflow, too.
To capture this overflow, use the variable tbu (time base upper), too. Return the combined value of tbl and tbu.
lastinc is unused then, remove it.

Hi Dirk,
no thanks to fix this coherently with other SOCs. Checking your patch I get convinced that we have a lot of duplicated code (get_ticks() for example) in most SOCs, but let it for a further improvement.

Applied to u-boot-imx, thanks.
