Hi Pankaj,
In general the patch seems quite nice, but please see few comments inline.

Returning here probably doesn't make too much sense, especially when you
just panic if the mapping fails and you remove the static mapping in
patch 2/5, so backwards compatibility isn't provided anyway.
So something like this might be a better idea:
np = of_find_matching_node(NULL, exynos_dt_pmu_match);
if (np)
pmu_base_addr = of_iomap(np, 0);
if (!pmu_base_addr)
panic("failed to find exynos pmu register\n");

Would moving this to .init_irq() callback work too? There are more
things happening in .init_time() so it seems more fragile and some
platforms (e.g. mach-tegra) do such platform-specific initialization in
.init_irq() instead.
Best regards,
Tomasz
