[PATCH v6 1/3] RISC-V: time: initialize hrtimer based broadcast clock event device

From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley@microchip.com>

Similarly to commit 022eb8ae8b5e ("ARM: 8938/1: kernel: initialize
broadcast hrtimer based clock event device"), RISC-V needs to initiate
hrtimer based broadcast clock event device before C3STOP can be used.
Otherwise, the introduction of C3STOP for the RISC-V arch timer in
commit 232ccac1bd9b ("clocksource/drivers/riscv: Events are stopped
during CPU suspend") leaves us without any broadcast timer registered.
This prevents the kernel from entering oneshot mode, which breaks timer
behaviour, for example clock_nanosleep().

A test app that sleeps each cpu for 6, 5, 4, 3 ms respectively, HZ=250
& C3STOP enabled, the sleep times are rounded up to the next jiffy:
== CPU: 1 == == CPU: 2 == == CPU: 3 == == CPU: 4 ==

Std Dev: 0.154374 Std Dev: 0.156082 Std Dev: 0.171018 Std Dev: 0.076193
