This driver adds support for parsing SBSA Generic Watchdog timer
in GTDT, parse all info in SBSA Generic Watchdog Structure in GTDT,
and creating a platform device with that information.
This allows the operating system to obtain device data from the
resource of platform device. The platform device named "sbsa-gwdt"
can be used by the ARM SBSA Generic Watchdog driver.

On platforms booting with ACPI, architected memory-mapped timers'
configuration data is provided by firmware through the ACPI GTDT
static table.
The clocksource architected timer kernel driver requires a firmware
interface to collect timer configuration and configure its driver.
this infrastructure is present for device tree systems, but it is
missing on systems booting with ACPI.
Implement the kernel infrastructure required to parse the static
ACPI GTDT table so that the architected timer clocksource driver can
make use of it on systems booting with ACPI, therefore enabling
the corresponding timers configuration.

This patch adds support for parsing arch timer info in GTDT,
provides some kernel APIs to parse all the PPIs and
always-on info in GTDT and export them.
By this driver, we can simplify arm_arch_timer drivers, and
separate the ACPI GTDT knowledge from it.
