The change looks good, but it appears that you only just add the legacy code
in the same series, and it would be easier to just add the correct version
first.

How about moving the entire file to drivers/clocksource/timer-goldfish.c?
It shouldn't even be architecture specific any more at this point. It probably
still is in practice, but that could be addressed when another architecture
wants to share the implementation.
