Sparc32 has a 64 bit counter that should be read and written as 64

I'm suppling the sparc changes to get comments on if this is worth
pursuing.
Couldn't you just latch the value when one half is accessed?

In this one specific case you could do that but this is not the only
case in sparc32
(TOD, MXCC, ...) and other architectures with 64 bit hardware have similar
requirements.
This is a generic solution that fills a hole in the qemu implementation.
