Looks like a good direction, but it still is rather tied to the 32k
sync timer.  We also have the ability to use a GPtimer as a
clocksource (see the clocksource register in timer-gp.c.)  By default,
we are always using the 32k timer for PM reasons, but we need the ability
to register any timer as clocksource.  This problably means just splitting
a little more the driver part and the device part.

Also, the new clocksource.c file should reference from whence it came.
A lot of that was copy/pasted from the older code so copyrights/author
credits should follow.
