A couple of words about the change to mitigate your impression of apparently imperfect code. The NXP LPC32xx platform is unmaintained and broken for about one and a half years, so I presume you won't get an ack from Roland, who is an official maintainer. Adding a CCF driver will be a huge progress, since it allows in +1 kernel release to fix the platform -- there is a critical problem in legacy IRQ handling based on hardware IRQs, irqchip driver change is ready as well, but CCF should go first, because it allows to remove a legacy clocksource/clockevent driver arch/arm/mach-lpc32xx/timer.c. That driver depends on legacy broken irqchip (hardware IRQs are used, irqchip with virtual IRQs will break the driver), it has a proper replacement drivers/clocksource/time-lpc32xx.c, but to use the new driver common clock support is needed. The CCF driver will let me remove tons of other legacy stuff as well, and this should be a step towards inclusion of the platform to multiarch builds. If you find impossible to include this CCF driver to v4.5, please add the first 4 of 5 changes, dt bindings include file is needed to update DTS files independently on CCF driver inclusion status. Thank you in advance.
