I see of_clk_init(NULL) getting called on two other ARM platforms:

$ git grep -w of_clk_init arch/arm
arch/arm/kernel/time.c:         of_clk_init(NULL);
arch/arm/mach-keystone/pm_domain.c:     of_clk_init(NULL);
arch/arm/mach-mvebu/armada-370-xp.c:    of_clk_init(NULL);
arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/mach-s3c64xx-dt.c:        of_clk_init(NULL);

Are the other two platforms ok here?

I assume that mvebu is fine since Sebastian would have noticed breaking
that one and it has a custom init_time function, but keystone seems
broken in the same way as s3c64xx. Santosh, can you have a look?
