OMAP2+ kernels built without CONFIG_OMAP_32K_TIMER crash on boot after the
2.6.38 sched_clock changes:

[    0.000000] OMAP clockevent source: GPTIMER1 at 13000000 Hz

[    0.000000] LR is at sched_clock_poll+0x2c/0x3c

Without CONFIG_OMAP_32K_TIMER, the kernel has an clockevent and
clocksource resolution about three orders of magnitude higher than
with CONFIG_OMAP_32K_TIMER set.  The tradeoff is that the lowest
power consumption states are not available.

Fix by calling init_sched_clock() from the GPTIMER clocksource init code.
