   Is there further plan to separate mk48txx RTC stuff from clock.c
   into dev/mkclock.c (or so) because clock and timer are independent?
   (mcclock.c is better than rtc.c in that case?)


sounds like an idea worth investigating.. i'm not attached to
filenames, just that (a) the PR is closed and (b) my non-rtc
using kernels are smaller now.
