"On platforms booting with ACPI, architected memory timers configuration
data is provided by firmware through the ACPI GTDT static table.

The clocksource architected timer kernel driver requires a firmware
interface to collect timer configuration and configure its driver;
this infrastructure is present for device tree systems but it is
missing on systems booting with ACPI.

Implement the kernel infrastructure required to parse the static
ACPI GTDT table so that the architected timer clocksource driver can
make use of it on systems booting with ACPI, therefore enabling
the corresponding timers configuration."

Nit: you can directly pass a struct acpi_gtdt_timer_block* pointer.

Here we jump to print an error and bail out. The only reason
why we need a goto is to print a common error message and that's
exactly what we do _not_ need, if there is a FW error we want
to understand which one is that, otherwise the information you
are printing is useless for debugging (provided we can make use
of this info, which is questionable anyway).

See above.

This is wrong, if you have multiple frames, pointers would add up and
that's not correct.

See above.

AFAIK map_generic_timer_interrupt() may fail, you should cater for that.

Ditto.

See above.

I already commented on this. I think the second part of this comment
is useless (it is a function with one caller, make sure you respect
the calling sequence and be done with this).

Thanks,
