The approach (and the patches) look good to me. I took the DT binding
description changes (patches 2 & 4) into clk-ap806-dt stable branch:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/clk/linux.git/log/?h=clk-ap806-dt

Anyone can merge the above branch if they need it as a dep.

The driver changes (patches 1, 3 & 5) are merged on into clk-ap806,
which is based on top of clk-ap806-dt:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/clk/linux.git/log/?h=clk-ap806

Everything has been merged into clk-next. I did not touch the .dts files
at all.

Regards,
Mike
