[MIPS] Sibyte: Stop timers before programming next even.
We have no guarantee by the generic time code that the timer is stopped when the ->next_event method is called. Modifying the Timer Initial Count register while the timer is enabled has UNPREDICTABLE effect according to the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User Manual. So stop the timer before reprogramming. This is a paranoia fix; no ill effects have been observed previously. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
