  Something probably have converted tabs to 8 spaces...

Only 3 of them?

Erm, it's format=flowed that spoils the tabs for Mozilla which renders them to 4 spaces, so it's actually hard to see which tabs are actually tabs and which are not... :-/

I would have done it otherwise -- using timer 1 as a generic MIPS clocksource (just hooking the IRQ to reload the comparator to all ones), and timer 2 as clockevent...

static void timer_ack(void)
{
   write_c0_compare(cpj);
}

Do we still need this function? I don't think so -- mips_timer_ack() is dead...

It's only used on initialization.

Could have put the call inline, or loaded the comparator with all ones just like timer 2 -- we don't need 'cpj' variable any more as well...

  Aren't PNX8550 timers actually periodic in nature?

All I recall is they were odd ;-)

The hardware nature of timers and how to declare them to the Linux timer
code is not always the same.  CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_ONESHOT be used if the
time to the next shot can be programmed.

   I meant that both modes should have been indicated by the flags.
And actually, shouldn't we disable the timer after expiry if in one-shot mode.
Writing to the comparator doesn't clear the counter, AFAICS -- so, isn't the explicit counter clearing to 0 needed in set_next_event() method?

__init void plat_time_init(void)
{
+    unsigned int             configPR;

 Something has definitely spoilt all the tabs in the patch...

I fixed the three checkpatch.pl was bitching about.

All the others were due to the way format=flowed is rendered by Mozilla it seems...

+    configPR = read_c0_config7();
+    configPR |= 0x00000020;
+    write_c0_config7(configPR);

  Enabling timers before they are actually set up? :-|

Are the additional timers used at all?

Additional == timer 3? It's not used, only 1 and 2 are -- and their count/compare registers are initialized further in this function...
