why? This patch only pushes some unnecessary code into the clocksource 
drivers:

+       .list           = LIST_HEAD_INIT(clocksource_avr32.list),

NACK unless you can give an explanation of why this is unavoidable. A 
NULL initializer is just as good as an initialized list entry. (in fact 
it's slightly better because it's in the kernel's BSS)
