This is somehow similar to the problem with mapping SYSRAM_NS for Exynos 
secure firmware. Currently it must be mapped statically using io_table, 
because ioremap does not work early enough. I guess this kind of approach 
might be also enough for clocks, until io mem mapping becomes accessible 
early enough, but someone else should also comment this.
