I'll just have a bit of a grumble here and point out that this sort of
stuff always worries me with the convention of using nameless clocks -
it causes hassle adding further clocks.

I think the best solution for this is to continue with anonymous clocks
rather than adding names after the fact. This could be done (for DT-only
drivers) using the of_clk_get() interface that takes an index, or
we could add a generic dev_clk_get_index() or similar interface that
has the same behavior but also works for clkdev.

Mixing devm_* and non-devm_* interfaces doesn't work.  If you want to do
that, devm_of_clk_get() would be a prerequisit.
