We already have devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider(), so any instances of
of_clk_add_provider() should be replaced with that, instead of
propagating the usage of of_clk_add_provider() any further. I'll gladly
apply patches to convert drivers from struct clk based APIs to struct
clk_hw based APIs so that we can clearly split clk providers from clk
consumers. So if you're interested in working on some coccinelle script
for that it would be great!
