The problem is that the system has multiple instances of the
smartreflex module, each having its own fck. On OMAP3/4 the fck's are
derived from sys_clk via muxes and latches.
The proposed code uses the fck's as defined in the .main_clk field of
the hwmod entries, so that it takes the muxes and latches into account
and also has a consistent clock naming.

Got it. The only solution would be to use an unique fck for all
smartreflex modules in all configurations. Is that acceptable?

Thanks!
