It looks like Rob's patches that would allow you to eliminate the
of_find_matching_node() call aren't checked in yet; I'm not sure if
they'll make 3.9 or not. I has assumed so, but even if not, I imagine
they will be available as a dependency branch for you to build on top of
in 3.10. Those are:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/2/7/417

However, you could still convert to CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE right now;
the patches to enable that should be in arm-soc's for-next; see
drivers/clocksource/tegra20_timer.c there for example.
