btw, do we need to add of_clk_get_by_name_optional()? I only added it
as a counterpart to of_clk_get_by_name(), but it may not be needed.
I don't need it. Given that it is easy to add when someone has a need, I'd say,
skip it for now.
I'm wondering if we actually need clk_get_optional(). For me at least, I just
want devm_clk_get_optional(). That would get rid of the arch patches.
Given that clk_get_optional will be that simple, it can live in
linux/clk.h for all implementors of the clk API, then you don't have to
care about different archs. (Unless I'm missing something.)

I don't think it's a good idea to drop clk_get_optional even if you'd
have to provide arch-specific stuff.

Best regards
Uwe
