[PATCH] clk: export __clk_get_name for re-use in imx-ipu-v3 and others

This fixes the following error when building for arm-imx:
> ERROR: "__clk_get_name" [drivers/staging/imx-drm/ipu-v3/imx-ipu-v3.ko] undefined!
> make[1]: *** [__modpost] Error 1
> make: *** [modules] Error 2

There are valid usecases to get the name of a clock, be it for debugging
purposes or to register a children of a clock like done in this IPU driver.
Therefore exporting __clk_get_name() and make it available for others makes
sense.
