No output with Genode::raw and Fiasco.OC

Hi Tomasz,

Thanks for your input! I plan on testing the software on an RPI in the 
future as well so this might prove useful.

Anyways, regarding your timing problems, how exactly did you measure 
them? My current setup consists of taking a start and stop timestamp via 
a timer-connection but I only seem to get milliseconds-precision (I 
tried using elapsed_us() but it seems to always produce 
"microsecond"-values ending with three zeroes.). I currently run 
everything inside QEMU so I don't know whether real hardware will simply 
fix this.

Cheers,
Simon
