FWIW, I've set this up so the cleanup path is:

do {
if (gtdt_frame->common_flags & ACPI_GTDT_GT_IS_SECURE_TIMER ||
gtdt_frame->frame_number >= ARCH_TIMER_MEM_MAX_FRAMES)
continue;

frame = &timer_mem->frame[gtdt_frame->frame_number];

if (frame->phys_irq > 0)
acpi_unregister_gsi(gtdt_frame->timer_interrupt);
frame->phys_irq = 0;

if (frame->virt_irq > 0)
acpi_unregister_gsi(gtdt_frame->virtual_timer_interrupt);
frame->virt_irq = 0;
} while (i-- >= 0 && gtdt_frame--);

... the zeroing is to account for duplicate frames, which I now check for in
the probe path (as we do for DT).

Can I take it per your comment on the prior version that with this change I can
take your ack?

I also assume that you're happy for all of the drivers/acpi/arm64/ patches in the
series to go via the clocksource tree?

Thanks,
Mark.
