[PATCH] BUG: clk_find() misses some clocks

Please read the comments on the function:

 * Find the correct struct clk for the device and connection ID.
 * We do slightly fuzzy matching here:
 *  An entry with a NULL ID is assumed to be a wildcard.
 *  If an entry has a device ID, it must match
 *  If an entry has a connection ID, it must match
 * Then we take the most specific entry - with the following
 * order of precedence: dev+con > dev only > con only.

So you've declared it with a connection ID.  Therefore, as the comment
above says, "it must match" what the driver is asking for.

It's not a bug, this is done intentionally so that mismatches do not
occur.
