We went back and forth on this one on some off-list reviews.

Had we known that the NAND controller was (re)using the clock registers
internal to the MMC IP block from the beginning, we would have written a
clock provider in drivers/clk for this, and shared it.

However, when I wrote the MMC driver[1] (already upstream) along with
the bindings[2], we did not fathom that the internal mux and divider
would be "borrowed" by another device. :(

We only recently found out that the NAND controller "borrows" one of the
MMC clocks, whose registers are inside the MMC range. Taking the clock
out of the MMC driver and into its own clock-provider implies redoing
the MMC driver, as well as its bindings, which we wanted to avoid
(especially the binding changes.)

We (I can take the blame) decided that since the MMC and NAND are
mutually exclusive (they also share pins), that allowing NAND to reuse
the MMC range would be a good compromise. The DT still accurately
describes the hardware, but we don't have to throw a large wrench into
the DT bindings just for a newly discovered shared clock.

I agree, it's not the prettiest thing, but when we cannot know the full
details of the hardware when we start, sometimes we end up in a bit of a
mess that requires some compromise.
