If we did then we'd have removed the code or the comments already. Please do note that the smp-cmp.c file lives behind a Kconfig option that is now marked as deprecated, and that there is other work going on in areas related to clocksource & clock events on the applicable systems. So whilst someone could spend the time figuring out whether those lines are useful, I expect that cleaning up these old FIXMEs is not a particularly high priority for anyone right now. If you'll leave them alone for a while I expect they'll disappear one way or another in a few cycles time, along with the rest of the file.
