Since you already have the struct timer_regs, you can make use
of that in dmtimer.c. Then maybe make the inline functions to
something like this instead:

static inline u32 __omap_dm_timer_read(void __iomem *base, u8 reg,
						u8 pend, int posted);

Where you pass the timer->context.pend depending on the pending
register offset for the timer.
