The clock here is not the i2c bus clock, but the clock input of the
controller. The function ocores_init initializes the prescaler register of
the controller so that the bus clock equals 100kHz (internal clock
runs at 500kHz):

static void ocores_init(struct ocores_i2c *i2c)
{
int prescale;
...
prescale = (i2c->clock_khz / (5*100)) - 1;
oc_setreg(i2c, OCI2C_PRELOW, prescale & 0xff);
oc_setreg(i2c, OCI2C_PREHIGH, prescale >> 8);
...

Then yes, when there's no 'clock-frequency' we take the value of the
clock assigned to this platform_device, which in turn comes from the
'clk' property.
