Doesn't look very elegant to me, but I wouldn't mind if there is no better option.
Even then, we can't rely on the device name as its index can change based on where it is

Well, thats what I said in the first mail, that *if* you are able to
fix the device name, *then* we could use clkdev the way its used in
non-DT case. But then you came back saying 'Fixing the device name
doesn't really solve the problem.' :)

It does, yes, but depending on fixed device names is not so great for DT, is it?
Doesn't solve the problem in the right sense :)

located in the dts file. e.g. in the beginning it may be named phy.8, and if a device
node is added before it, it will get changed to phy.9

If you provide a phandle to the PHY node in the board node, for which
you need to add the clk alias, you can always extract the device (using
of_find_device_by_node() ) and hence its name, so it doesn't matter if
its phy.8 or phy.9.

Right, I'll come up with something on these lines.

Thanks for the suggestions :).
