Hmm ... difficult.

As you can see, currently we call init_sched_clock when the second timer is 
found, which then tries to find the sptimer or uses the clocksource as 
sched_clock.

So to use CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE for the sptimer the init_sched_clock call 
would need to move to its init function. So on system without sptimer (like 
mine) this third call would never happen, and the system would be missing a 
sched_clock.

Or I just don't see the solution currently. In any case this could probably be 
handled by someone with the relevant hardware to test ;-) .
