It is only one patch but indeed without the branch my patches would have
to wait for next release. If you would be so kind, could you prepare
the stable branch? I hope MyungJoo Ham will use it.

Anyway I encountered more linkage errors for clk API (like clk_get_rate()).
They happen for various compile-tested drivers in case of MIPS (and
maybe others like SH). I will investigate it more but I think it is not
related strictly to this issue.

Best regards,
