Why do you need this header ? nps_host_reg ?
We prevent to include headers from <plat> in the drivers directory. You
should find a way to get rid of it.

Perhaps a small optimization...
static DEFINE_PER_CPU_READ_MOSTLY(void __iomem *, baseaddr);
static cycle_t nps_clksrc_read(struct clocksource *clksrc)
{
void __iomem *base = per_cpu(baseaddr, raw_smp_processor_id());
return (cycle_t)ioread32be(base);
}
and in the init function:
for_each_cpu(cpu) {
per_cpu(baseaddr, cpu) = nps_host_reg(cpu,
NPS_MSU_BLKID,
NPS_MSU_TICK_LOW
}

AFAICT, there is a memory barrier with ioread32be, are you really sure
we have to use it in this code path ?

I don't get why this is done this way. The Kconfig option help says the
clocksource rate is 1GHz but in the DT the clock is 88MHz.
It would be cleaner to define a fixed clock and then add a phandle in
the DT.
timer_clk: timer_clk {
#clock-cells = <0>;
compatible = "fixed-clock";
clock-frequency = <123456789>;
};
timer {
compatible = "ezchip,nps400-timer";
clocks = <&timer_clk>;
}
That will result in the same code than the other drivers.
clk = of_clk_get(np, 0);
if (IS_ERR(clk)) {
pr_err("%s: invalid clock\n", np->full_name);
return;
}
rate = clk_get_rate(clk);
