Oh right, I read the patch order backwards. You can fix this by moving
this patch to the end of the series.

To avoid bisect issues, the clock-frequency property should be removed
in the same patch that adds the clocks property, or after it.

You still need to initialize all the UART clocks in init_table[]. This
is required to make sure the clocks have the correct parent. Without
this explicit initialization, on Tegra30 at least, it was found that
UART C didn't work correctly for Bluetooth since the default parent was
something that wasn't generating the expected frequency.

Before removing the clock-frequency property, you also need to make sure
that init_table[] forces the UART clock on, otherwise since nothing will
clk_get()/enable() the UART clock, clk_disable_unused() will disable it.
After removing clock-frequency property, of_serial.c will
clk_get()/enable() the UART clock based on the clocks property, and
hence init_table[] doesn't need to force the UART clock on.
