Correct, current SoC shares one clock line.

I'm just thinking to finish things in one time. From my previous
experience, clocks per cluster are common cases for ARM's
multi-clusters, so i think it's reasonable to add related support.

Regarding of testing this patch, i created two virtual clocks for
every cluster and passed the test. Do u think this is acceptable?
