Yeah, makes sense. We can always add a clkdev entry with CLKDEV_INIT()
if driver needs it. There is so much confusion now with having device name
associated with platform clock name. It should be possible to freely define
clock connection id and a platform clock association, not at the platform
clock definition.

I guess we can now clean all this up only during conversion to common clock
framework.
