don't know if it's worth to add this debug uart support here. there is a
series from Russel to consolidate 8250 and pl01x debug uarts. maybe you
want to delay this.

the trend is to consolidate machine descriptors.

so .init_irq can go, irqchip_init is picked anyway if .init_irq is NULL.

also .init_time could be dropped, it can be specified using
CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE(), but I see bcm53xx_timer_init is already quite
minimal here and I'm struggling to see the big picture here. So mine is
actually a question for others... :)
