CRISv10 improve and bugfix fasttimer

Improve and bugfix CRIS v10 fast timers.

- irq_handler_t now only takes two arguments.
- Keep interrupts disabled as long as we have a reference to the
  fasttimer list and only enable them while doing the callback.
  del_fast_timer may be called from other interrupt context.
- Fix bug where debug code could return without calling local_irq_restore.
- Use jiffies instead of usec (change from struct timeval to fasttime_t).
- Don't initialize static variables to zero.
- Remove obsolete #ifndef DECLARE_WAITQUEUE code.
- fast_timer_init should be __initcall.
- Change status/debug variables to unsigned.
- Remove CVS log and CVS id.

- *
- * Revision 1.2  2002/12/11 15:42:02  starvik
- * Extracted v10 (ETRAX 100LX) specific stuff from arch/cris/kernel/
- *
- * Revision 1.1  2002/11/18 07:58:06  starvik
- * Fast timers (from Linux 2.4)
- *
- * Revision 1.5  2002/10/15 06:21:39  starvik
- * Added call to init_waitqueue_head
- *
- * Revision 1.4  2002/05/28 17:47:59  johana
- * Added del_fast_timer()
- *
- * Revision 1.3  2002/05/28 16:16:07  johana
- * Handle empty fast_timer_list
- *
- * Revision 1.2  2002/05/27 15:38:42  johana
- * Made it compile without warnings on Linux 2.4.
- * (includes, wait_queue, PROC_FS and snprintf)
- *
- * Revision 1.1  2002/05/27 15:32:25  johana
- * arch/etrax100/kernel/fasttimer.c v1.8 from the elinux tree.
- *
- * Revision 1.8  2001/11/27 13:50:40  pkj
- * Disable interrupts while stopping the timer and while modifying the
- * list of active timers in timer1_handler() as it may be interrupted
- * by other interrupts (e.g., the serial interrupt) which may add fast
- * timers.
- *
- * Revision 1.7  2001/11/22 11:50:32  pkj
- * * Only store information about the last 16 timers.
- * * proc_fasttimer_read() now uses an allocated buffer, since it
- *   requires more space than just a page even for only writing the
- *   last 16 timers. The buffer is only allocated on request, so
- *   unless /proc/fasttimer is read, it is never allocated.
- * * Renamed fast_timer_started to fast_timers_started to match
- *   fast_timers_added and fast_timers_expired.
- * * Some clean-up.
- *
- * Revision 1.6  2000/12/13 14:02:08  johana
- * Removed volatile for fast_timer_list
- *
- * Revision 1.5  2000/12/13 13:55:35  johana
- * Added DEBUG_LOG, added som cli() and cleanup
- *
- * Revision 1.4  2000/12/05 13:48:50  johana
- * Added range check when writing proc file, modified timer int handling
- *
- * Revision 1.3  2000/11/23 10:10:20  johana
- * More debug/logging possibilities.
- * Moved GET_JIFFIES_USEC() to timex.h and time.c
- *
- * Revision 1.2  2000/11/01 13:41:04  johana
- * Clean up and bugfixes.
- * Created new do_gettimeofday_fast() that gets a timeval struct
- * with time based on jiffies and *R_TIMER0_DATA, uses a table
- * for fast conversion of timer value to microseconds.
- * (Much faster the standard do_gettimeofday() and we don't really
- * want to use the true time - we want the "uptime" so timers don't screw up
- * when we change the time.
- * TODO: Add efficient support for continuous timers as well.
- *
- * Revision 1.1  2000/10/26 15:49:16  johana
- * Added fasttimer, highresolution timers.
