It makes more sense - thank you and Marc.

Nit: you don't really need another pointer (ie tmp) but you may keep
it if that makes the code clearer - all you need to do is using
platform_timer as an iterator and initialize

acpi_gtdt_desc.platform_timer = (void *)gtdt + gtdt->platform_timer_offset;

if all checks passed (you are using tmp just because after the loop
platform_timer can't be used to initialize acpi_gtdt_desc.platform_timer).
