Style Nit: This is new. Usually people either make a
<my_driver>_{readl,writel}() function that takes the struct and
an offset or they just add the offset directly in their
readl/writel calls. Can you do that? Probably save some lines of
code.

This is unfortunate. Do you have a pending timer interrupt left
by the bootloader?

Why have freq in the DT binding at all then?

If you switch this registration and the setup_irq() call you
shouldn't need the ACCESS_ONCE() and that check in the irq handler.
Please switch the order and or clear the interrupt before
registering the clockevent and remove the checks in the interrupt
handler.
