If people would implement the clk API correctly (matching by struct device
rather than giving every clock a name and trying to use the const char *
as the sole matching token), stuff like this would not be necessary.
The second argument to clk_get() is supposed to be a _consumer_ name
(iow, something to determine which clock for the struct device you want)
rather than a producer name.
