[BUG] unclear code in MTK platform timer code

[plbossart]

cppcheck throws the following warning:

src/drivers/mediatek/mt8195/timer.c:68:13: style: Redundant initialization for 'lowtimeout'. The initialized value is overwritten before it is read. [redundantInitialization]
 lowtimeout = ticks_set;
            ^
src/drivers/mediatek/mt8195/timer.c:47:22: note: lowtimeout is initialized
 uint32_t lowtimeout = ticks & 0xFFFFFFFF;
                     ^
src/drivers/mediatek/mt8195/timer.c:68:13: note: lowtimeout is overwritten
 lowtimeout = ticks_set;
            ^

the code looks suspicious, so filing as a bug. Not sure what the values for lowtimeout and hitimeout should be.
