Actually I have a fat patch renaming CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE()
to TIMER_OF_DECLARE() and I think this macro, if needed, should
be named TIMER_ACPI_DECLARE().

The reason is that "clocksource" is a Linux-internal name and this
macro pertains to the hardware name in respective system
description type.

This hammers down the world to compile one binary for ACPI
and one binary for device tree. Maybe that's fine, I don't know.
