Why is dev_id not pointing to the correct device in the first place?

Adding such conditionals into a fast path is brilliant. Granted, gcc
might optimize it out, but I'm not sure given the number of call sites.

What's the point of this exercise ?

Why don't you store the address of the read register including the
shift value into the msm_clock structure ?

      clock->counter_reg
      clock->counter_shift

And then embedd the clocksource struct there as well, so you can
dereference msm_clock with container_of() and reduce the 3 read
functions to a single one.

Why don't you use container_of here as well ?

The generic clockevents layer has already a check for this. No need
for extra printk spam.

Always called with interrupts disabled.

Why are you fiddling wiht the irqchip functions directly ? Please use
disable_irq/enable_irq if at all.

Shouldn't that be an inline ? Why calling code which the compiler
could optimize out.

Aarg. No. The generic code already handles cpu hotplug.
