Hmmm, yep not needed.

Oops, missed :)
The timer_init() code can be moved to dm_timer_init(), but since it
provides timer uclass functionality I kept the code in timer-uclass driver.
Now since dm_timer_init() doesn't have any thing other than calling
timer_init, I will move the dm_timer_init() to timer_uclass and move
timer_init code to it.
