One line, except the line exceeds 80 chars. All over the place.

  This is horrible to read.

+	val = (1UL << UVH_IPI_INT_SEND_SHFT) |

+		(vector << UVH_IPI_INT_VECTOR_SHFT);

Takes the same amount of lines, but is parseable.

  return uv_read_global_mmr64(pnode, UVH_EVENT_OCCURRED0) &
  	  UVH_EVENT_OCCURRED0_RTC1_MASK;

Please collapse those ints into one line

Is this worth the trouble whether we allocate a couple of u64s per
node or not ? 

Also isn't this kind of topology evaluation not done in x86 code
already ?

  Leaks memory for already allocated nodes

  	u64 exp, lowest = ULLONG_MAX;
	int c, cpu = -1;

	please

  How many cpus do we iterate here ? Is this really scaling ?

  Please move the expired check into uv_setup_intr() and return the
  expired status. You need the same check in uv_rtc_set_timer() below.

No need to implement broadcast. Your clock event device is not
affected from power states or such, so this will never be called.

  called with interrupts disabled already.

  clockevents_register_device can not be called from interrupt
  context. You use an SMP call for this. Please test your code with
  lockdep enabled.

 The clock source is already registered. So now the module is removed
 and the timekeeping code explodes.

      clocksource_unregister(...) perpaps?

EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL and separate patch please.
