I was undecided whether this should be in next/drivers or next/soc,
ended up putting it into the latter.

I don't see the clocksource maintainers involved in the patch series,
so I added them to Cc now to make sure they are aware of the move
of the driver.

OK thanks. We got some comments from Daniel for an earlier set of
patches in December. No acks though, but hopefully it's good enough
for further work to happen under drivers/clocksource :)

Yeah, I had a look at the series. There is still work to do but IMO it
is preferable to move it to drivers/clocksource and then continue the
cleanup from there. So I'm fine with it.
