realtek: Use Otto timer on RTL931x

Until now the timer management on the RTL931x devices depends
on the MIPS default timer. Looking at the clock progress on
these devices one can see that it is totally off. It is running
at half the required speed (e.g. if 1 minute passes the date
command shows that according to the timers only 30 seconds have
elapsed). This is a mix from wrong DTS and bad startup code.

This is not only a cosmetic issue but has effects on every
delay operation inside the kernel. Switch RTL931x to the proven
Otto timer.

Tested on LGS352C based on RTL9311.
