Yes, this is a part of workaround to get appropriate ticks.

We wish to count down at 1MHz, providing a resolution of 1us.
This becomes possible with MUX_DIV_4 for timer 4, since,
exynos 5250 manual says that for 4-bit divider settings at
1/4 (PCLK = 66 MHz ), we get 66637.07 seconds interval.

To avoid side effects of compiler optimizations.
