This looks naïve. It is entirely possible for different clock specifiers
to resolve to the same clock line, or for there to be multple clocks in
the clocks property. This looks like a buggy way to do it. The only
reliable way to determine if two clocks resolve to the same thing is to
resolve the references with the clock controller.
