That is what is unclear for me. percpu or IRQF_PERCPU ?

Have a look at the commit 9995f4f184613fb02ee73092b03545520a72b104,
changelog and the comment in the init function.

Can you give a similar description for this timer ?

Yep, fine.

NATCHIP_STATUS_CLR
NATCHIP_CONTROL_RST
NATCHIP_CONTROL_START

NATCHIP_CONFIG_EN
NATCHIP_CONFIG_IRQ_EN

Fine.

In the flags, it is specified periodic and oneshot but only the
set_periodic ops is set.

I wanted to be sure it wasn't the latter. In this case, you don't need
parenthesis, so just add the spaces around the '/' operator.
