When looking at the smp_twd.c, there is a similar need.

There are a couple of notifier used on for cpufreq and one for clock
rate change.

Wouldn't make sense to add the notifier calls and registration in the
time framework and add the callbacks in the dev ops ? The switch would
be in the timer framework and perhaps the irq disabling may be easier to
deal with ?
