    Why not just clk_get(&pdev->dev, NULL)?

WBR, Sergei
clk_get_sys uses the clkdev lookup table, which is added by this series.
    clk_get() does the same, indirectly.
it makes the clock code consistent throughout the lantiq related files.
we use clk connections other places, which we cannot reference with
clk_get that easily
    clkdev assumes you don't need to use connection ID if the clock is bound to 
be matched by device ID via the lookup table. clk_get() is a common case when 
using clkdev, that's why your use of clk_get_sys() stands out as something 
unusual. I'll have to have a look at your lookup tables...
