Actually I wonder if I can try a bit harder to keep a system booting.
The following might work
1) add the compatible strings to the existing armada clock drivers.
2) update the dts to use the new compatible strings.
3) add the new driver and remove the compatible strings from the armada
drivers.

#1 would still upset checkpatch.pl because the documentation would only
arrive in #2.
Actually upon testing #1 is unnecessary. I lose some of the gated clocks
but nothing that prevents booting.
Just to be sure: this means we can merge 2) and 3) independently and
having just one of them will not cause regressions over what we have
today?
Correct. And that's what I sent out as v2.
