[PATCH] Alchemy: get rid of allow_au1k_wait

[Manuel Lauss <manuel.lauss@googlemail.com>]

Eliminate the 'allow_au1k_wait' variable.  MIPS kernel installs the
Alchemy-specific wait code before timer initialization;  if the C0
timer must be used for timekeeping the wait function is set to NULL
which means no wait implementation is available.

As a sideeffect, the 'wait instruction available' output in
/proc/cpuinfo now correctly indicates whether 'wait' is usable.

Run-tested on DB1200.
