Eliminate the 'allow_au1k_wait' variable. MIPS kernel installs the
Alchemy-specific wait code before timer initialization; if the C0
timer must be used for timekeeping the wait function is set to NULL
which means no wait implementation is available.
As a sideeffect, the 'wait instruction available' output in
/proc/cpuinfo now correctly indicates whether 'wait' is usable.
Run-tested on DB1200.
