so the problem still need to be solved since device names coming from DT is not
that much "stable" as statically registered devices. the name from DT
isn't the same
as what board support code currently uses for statically registered
platform_devices.

Grant has two threads for this:
1. of: add clock providers to provide clk mapping in DT
http://www.mail-archive.com/devicetree-discuss at lists.ozlabs.org/msg03016.html
2. " If Linux needs specific devices to have specific names, then it
can pass in a lookup table that matches DT nodes to device names,
which is considerably simpler and it leaves the platform setup code in
control over how devices get instantiated."

both seems not ready yet?

I'm planning to merge the auxdata patch (thread 2 above) into
linux-next in a couple of days.  When I push out that branch, it can
be merged into the subarch tree before picking up the sirfprimall
support patch (assuming it gets picked up for v3.1)
