Ok, I've improved all my comment for the drivers. Here is my modification:

clocksource: add gx6605s SOC system timer

The driver is for gx6605s SOC system timer and there are two
same timers in gx6605s. We use one for clkevt and another one for
clksrc.

The timer is mmio map to access, so we need give mmio address in dts.

The counter at 0x0 offset is clock event.
The counter at 0x40 offset is clock source.

Changelog:
- pass checkpatch.pl
- Add COMIPLE_TEST in Kconfig
- no cast is needed for "struct clock_event_device *ce = dev"
- remove: extra space after (u64)
- Add License and Copyright
- Use timer-of framework
- Change name with upstream feedback
- Use clksource_mmio framework

clocksource: add C-SKY SMP timer

The driver is for C-SKY SMP timer. It only support oneshot event
and 32bit overflow for clocksource. Per cpu core has one timer and
all timers share one clock-counter-input the same clocksource.

This use mfcr&mtcr instructions to access the regs.

Changelog:
- Add COMPILE_TEST
- Fixup smp boot error, cpuhp_setup_state must after timer_of_init()
- Add rollback for timer_of_cleanup.
- Use request_percpu_irq separate from time_of.
- Remove #define CPUHP_AP_CSKY_TIMER_STARTING.
- Add CPUHP_AP_CSKY_TIMER_STARTING in cpuhotplug.h.
- Support csky mp timer alpha version.
- Just use low-counter with 32bit width as clocksource.
- Coding convention with upstream feed-back.

===> It's interrupt controller comment, perhaps you won't care. <===

irqchip: add C-SKY APB bus interrupt controller

The driver is for C-SKY APB bus interrupt controller. It's a simple
interrupt controller which use pending reg to detect the irq and use
enable/disable reg to mask/unmask interrupt sources.

A lot of SOCs based on C-SKY CPU use the interrupt controller as root
controller.

Changelog:
- pass checkpatch.pl.
- use "bool ret" instead of "int ret"
- add support-pulse-signal in irq-csky-apb-intc.c
- change name with upstream feed-back
- add INTC_IFR to clear irq-pending
- remove CSKY_VECIRQ_LEGENCY
- change to generic irq chip framework
- add License and Copyright
- use irq_domain_add_linear instead of leagcy

irqchip: add C-SKY SMP interrupt controller

The driver is for C-SKY SMP interrupt controller. It support 16
soft-irqs, 16 private-irqs, and 992 max external-irqs, a total of
1024 interrupts.

C-SKY CPU 807/810/860 SMP/non-SMP could use it.

Changelog:
- Remove set_ipi_irq_mapping.
- Convert the cpumask to an interrupt-controller specific representation
in driver's code, and not the SMP code's.
- pass checkpatch.pl
- Move IPI_IRQ into the driver
- Remove irq_set_default_host() and use set_ipi_irq_mapping()
- Change name with upstream feed-back
- Change irq map, reserve soft_irq & private_irq space
- Add License and Copyright
- Support set_affinity for irq balance in SMP
