I want to wait until after this merge window before commenting too much
on this; some of this patch will be impacted by changes in this merge
window.

Is this something which other clocksource drivers need to do, or does the
core automatically deal with the clocksource being irregular across a
suspend/resume event?

Umm, why not wrap up the clock_event_device into your own structure,
which then carries the base address of the MCT to be used - rather than
duplicating the code just because the base address is different.  Eg,

struct mct_clock_event_device {
	struct clock_event_device evt;
	void __iomem *base;
};
