This series defines clock bindings for Device-Tree and adds kernel
support using the common clock infrastructure. The last patch enables
DT clock support for the Calxeda Highbank platform.

I'm posting this again to solicit further review. There has been some
discussion[1], but no definite path forward. This series is not changed
from the last post other than rebasing to v3.5-rc2.

How would this binding work for clocks which can take a spinlock pointer as a
init parameter (eg. clk-gate).

Other than fixed clocks, this makes no attempt at generic bindings.
There is still per clock init required which can allocate a spinlock if
necessary. If you look at the highbank code, it would be trivial to
initialize spinlocks as needed.
