Very true, I did also prefer not do this. But, clock lookup should be
functional atleast by the time mct initialization begins. So I tried
few options such as adding .early_init_call callback in MACHINE_DESC
which then can call exynos4_clk_init, but that did not help since
mem_init isn't complete by then and memory allocation failed during
clock registration. Other methods also did not help much. If you know
of a solution to get around this, could you please let me know.

Thanks,
Thomas.
