Let's assume the counter value is 0xf000000, the pistachio clocksource

oops, sorry, should be 0xf0000000. Do I need to send a v2 patch?

And in fact, clocksource_mmio_readw_down() also has similar issue, but it masks
with c->mask before return, the c->mask is less than 32 bit (because the
clocksource_mmio_init think number of valid bits > 32 or < 16 is invalid.)
the higher 32 bits are masked off, so we never saw such issue. But we'd better
to fix that, what's your opinion?

I think we should have a look to this portion closely.
