actually, you don't need to initialize .init_timer at all in DT boot.
Just use CLKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE() and pass your omap_generic_timer_init()
as argument (although, I'd call it omap_of_timer_init()).

That will put of_device_id structure on a special section
(__clksource_of_table) and pass your function as a data argument. That
function will be called automatically during init.
