This struct member "count_down" is a bit badly named now don't
you think?

The patch is fine semantically, but please rename this member
"is_aspeed" or something like that and update the code everywhere,
then insert a comments like

/* The Aspeed variant counts downward */
/* The Aspeed variant does not have a match interrupt */

in the code snippets so we see what is going on.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
