Is this something you intend "fixing" then?

I don't mind putting a simplistic (but do nothing) place holder for
this function along with the other stubbed clk functions in the m68k/
coldfire code.

But more generally I am wondering does it make sense to be working
on specific platform clocks in a multi-platform/arch driver?
