Seems to be working fine for me with your patch applied, it probes:
# dmesg | grep sp804
[ 0.035363] clocksource: arm,sp804: mask: 0xffffffff max_cycles:
0xffffffff, max_idle_ns: 15290083572 ns
and it is usable:
# cat clocksource0/available_clocksource
arm_global_timer arm,sp804
and appears to work:
# echo "arm,sp804" > clocksource0/current_clocksource
[ 105.108547] clocksource: Switched to clocksource arm,sp804
# date; sleep 5; date

Feel free to add Tested-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@xxxxxxxxx> in
your v2, thanks André!
