As mentioned on the previous patch, I think for the timebeing we should
rely on CNTFREQ.
Additionally, if you need to do this we should have an analagous
mechanism to clocksource_of_init() that performs this initialisation for
ACPI, and here we can call a clocksource_*_init function that does the
right thing.
There's no need for this file to know anything about ACPI.
Oh, Amit already have some patches to introduce clocksource_acpi_init()
like clocksource_of_init() did, please refer to the link below.

is this the idea you mentioned in your comments?
Thanks
