Yeah. Sorry for long delay as discussed. I'm applying the $subject
patch finally into omap-for-v4.6/dt today.
We still have at least two fixes left to go that both affect also
n900. But at least I can now sanely test adding new stuff with a WIP
fix for the PM runtime regression.

Heh I too have some pending clock framework patches from December
that I did not repost yet as the maintainers notified that they
rather not take new stuff any longer for v4.5 before the holidays.
