Ah yeah, of course, that's in another series. What's the best approach
here? I could cheekily import an existing header file, the symbol names in
there are often the same (ccu-sun20i-d1-r.h defines the same symbol, even
with the same number).
Or I just replace it below with the number "1"?
Or let git format-patch append the patch-id of the clock binding header
patch?

Cheers,
Andre
