[PATCH v2] clocksource/drivers/sp804: avoid error on multiple instances

[Andre Przywara]

When a machine sports more than one SP804 timer instance, we only bring
up the first one, since multiple timers of the same kind are not useful
to Linux. As this is intentional behaviour, we should not return an
error message, as we do today:
===============
[    0.000800] Failed to initialize '/bus@8000000/motherboard-bus@8000000/iofpga-bus@300000000/timer@120000': -22
===============

Replace the -EINVAL return with a debug message and return 0 instead.

Also we do not reach the init function anymore if the DT node is
disabled (as this is now handled by OF_DECLARE), so remove the explicit
check for that case.

This fixes a long standing bogus error when booting ARM's fastmodels.

Changelog v1 .. v2:
- demote pr_info() to pr_debug(), to avoid output at all
- use %pOF and reword message
