Well, as already discussed the clockdomain information is mostly useless 
for most clock nodes because the HW is taking care of the dependencies, 
so highlighting only the ones missing in hwmod is far from enough and 
will avoid scaring people with something that is normal.

Considering that OMAP4 clock domain partition is way more complex than 
it was on OMAP2 & 3, if OMAP4 can leave without that, I doubt OMAP2 & 3 
clock nodes will ever need it, except HW bugs, as usual.

But still, it is an exception more than the regular case.
