I'm really not happy about using the MMIO clocksource stuff with random
other read functions like this - it defeats the entire purpose of the
MMIO clocksource stuff.  Maybe we should just undo the change for IXP4xx
and treat it as "special" for the time being.

Thomas - do you have any other views?
