Thanks for your attention.
After taking a look at netevent_notif_chain, you mean I should do it in below style:

static ATOMIC_NOTIFIER_HEAD(clock_change_notifier_list);

int un/register_clock_change_notifier(struct notifier_block *nb)
{
         int err;

         err = atomic_notifier_chain_un/register(&clock_change_notifier_list, nb);
         return err;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(clock_change_notifier_list);

int call_clock_change_notifiers(unsigned long val, void *v)
{
         return atomic_notifier_call_chain(&clock_change_notifier, val, v);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(call_clock_change_notifiers);

Will do it in next version after others comment rest of patches.

Thanks Daniel.
