Right, the enum is still in the clock driver, as this was written before
the DT binding includes were there. I have some some additions to the
clock driver in the pipeline and will remove the enum in the course of
this.

So please if you write a new clock driver just use the DT includes. It
makes maintenance a lot easier.
