The way I understood this, was that clk_get_rate() would fetch the
clock rate as defined by the 'assigned-clock-rates'
Is this not the case? And if so, what rate would cllk_get_rate()
actually retrieve?

The HW specific include is used for the clocks property.
clocks = <&clock_camcc CAM_CC_MCLK0_CLK>;

Is there a non hw specific clock that would be better to use for examples?
