Hi Ying,

Only some minor nits found in review. 

I don't think they're merge blockers, but could be all fixed
in followups later.

Overall it looks all good.

Should make the magic PAGE_SIZE * 2 into a define with a comment?

In generic Linux this would be memcpy_fromio. On x86 of course it's the same. 
Still perhaps better use that to prevent sparse from freaking out with its 
address space checks.

generaic -> generic 

This is user visible so should be fixed.

Could actually make this a deferrable timer I guess to be even more
friendly to power.

I suspect need some more explanation on this one.

Should normally have a comment to describe what it synchronizes against.
The NMI in this case I guess.
