arm: Remove system_clock_scale global

All the devices that used to use system_clock_scale have now been
converted to use Clock inputs instead, so the global is no longer
needed; remove it and all the code that sets it.

- * Multiplication factor to convert from system clock ticks to qemu timer
- * ticks. This should be set (by board code, usually) to a value
- * equal to NANOSECONDS_PER_SECOND / frq, where frq is the clock frequency
- * in Hz of the CPU.
- *
- * This value is used by the systick device when it is running in
- * its "use the CPU clock" mode (ie when SYST_CSR.CLKSOURCE == 1) to
- * set how fast the timer should tick.
- *
- * TODO: we should refactor this so that rather than using a global
- * we use a device property or something similar. This is complicated
- * because (a) the property would need to be plumbed through from the
- * board code down through various layers to the systick device
- * and (b) the property needs to be modifiable after realize, because
- * the stellaris board uses this to implement the behaviour where the
- * guest can reprogram the PLL registers to downclock the CPU, and the
- * systick device needs to react accordingly. Possibly this should
- * be deferred until we have a good API for modelling clock trees.
