[PATCH] clk: add LP8788 clock driver

OK, thanks! Will be fixed in the 2nd patch.

If I try to get LP8788 clock status via the remap-i2c here, then locking problem
occurs.
The 'enable_lock' is already locked and the MUTEX of REGMAP is used on reading
a register.

[    2.692443] -------------------------------------------------------
[    2.699066] swapper/0/1 is trying to acquire lock:
[    2.704132]  (&map->mutex){+.+...}, at: [<c0374ecc>] regmap_read+0x34/0x5c
[    2.711486] 
[    2.711486] but task is already holding lock:
[    2.717681]  (enable_lock){......}, at: [<c047a6c8>] clk_disable_unused_subtr
ee+0x3c/0xb4
[    2.726379] 
[    2.726379] which lock already depends on the new lock.

That's why lp8788_get_clk_status() is used on _probe().
- Read a register and store the value into local status variable.
Then local variable is used in .is_enabled().

Not checked yet, but it looks no caller for this callback at this moment.
Will this be added inside the clk_prepare()?

LP8788 Clock is always enabled, so it needs to show the clock status.
However, I think no effect on working the clock operation without is_enabled().
Can I remove it?

Thanks,
