Yes, according to the JH7100 docs[1] the mtime register is sourced from the
osc_sys external oscillator through u74rtc_toggle. However I haven't yet found
a place in the docs that describe where that clock is divided by 4 to get
6.25MHz from the 25MHz.

I expect the JH7110 mtime is set up in a similar way, but haven't yet dug into
the available documentation.
