We already have dev/ic/mc146818.c, but it has a problem.
The mcclock also has an interval timer and some port (pmax)
uses it for timer (tick) interrupts but mc146818.c doesn't
take care of it. I have no idea how it should be handled in MI
code yet.

We also have to consider how mips/mips_mcclock.c and releated
files should be rewriten. (should they be moved into arch/pmax?)
