    timer: Add functions to initialize absolute timer structures.
    
    Otherwise there's no good way to create an absolute timer structure without
    fiddling with its internal structure or assuming a zero initialized structure
    has a value of zero.

    exynos: Simplify the monotonic timer implementation.
    
    The previous implementation was overly complicated, and when used in the
    timestamp implementation produced some weird and broken results.
