Subject: arm64/delay: move some constants out to a separate header
Date: Wed, 8 Apr 2026 17:55:27 +0530

Moves some constants and functions related to xloops, cycles computation
out to a new header.  Also make __delay_cycles() available outside of
arch/arm64/lib/delay.c.

Rename some macros in qcom/rpmh-rsc.c which were occupying the same
namespace.

No functional change.
