Yes, actually quite a lot of them have the same code, and we also have
an increasing number of users of the irqchip_init and clocksource_of_init,
so those can also be cleaned up as a follow-on to this patch.

The main thing that has to remain for a lot of the platforms is SMP
support, and I don't see a good way around that yet.

Yep, you're right, my mistake.
