Actually, I'd be happy if you make a decision. It would be my first
pull request and maybe it should go guided by more experienced devs
from now on. Although I am willing to learn.

True, for an early merge that was a bad decision. I looked again into
patches 1-8 and if there are concerns:
- nomadik can be dropped as it still has custom .init_time.
- prima2 and sunxi are quite straight forward but also have custom
   .init_time that protect them from the arch-wide call.
- socfpga needs some new custom .init_time then.
- vt8500 is a little bit more changes but has .init_time call to
   clocksource_of_init alone.
