So a real AST2500 evb board boot fines with this branch but the timer 
model in QEMU crashes miserably :

	[    0.000000] NR_IRQS:16 nr_irqs:16 16
	Floating point exception (core dumped)

that is just before :

	[    0.000000] clocksource: FTTMR010-TIMER2: mask: 0xffffffff max_cycles: 0xffffffff, max_idle_ns: 77222644334 ns
	[    0.000025] sched_clock: 32 bits at 24MHz, resolution 40ns, wraps every 86767015915ns

Something to look at in QEMU.

Joel, do you confirm ? 

Thanks,

C.
