[MIPS] Protect more of timer_interrupt() by xtime_lock.
From Dave Johnson <djohnson+linuxmips@sw.starentnetworks.com>: * do_timer() expects the arch-specific handler to take the lock as it modifies jiffies[_64] and xtime. * writing timerhi/lo in timer_interrupt() will mess up fixed_rate_gettimeoffset() which reads timerhi/lo.
