Much easier to merge, thanks.
While looking for a machine to build-test this, I noticed that the IOP/IXP
platforms have ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET - yet they select PLAT_IOP which
in turn selects GENERIC_TIME etc.
I think ARCH_IOP13XX, ARCH_IOP32X and ARCH_IOP33X shouldn't select
ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET - do you agree?
