Fair enough. I'll keep that in mind for the next round of patches.

Ah, I wasn't aware that of_clk_init() would call the init functions. I thought it was up to clocksource_of_init() to do that.

Originally, I was adding a call to clocksource_of_init() to the platform code but that resulted in the timers being added twice. If of_clk_init() already calls the init functions, that would explain it.

That's perfect. That'll also let me kick the whole timer_init boolean thing.
