Sorry, this should have read "without". Also please note that due to
representing original struct clk_clksrc objects (mux + div + gate clock)
with separate primitive clocks device drivers may not work as before
where clk_{set/get}_parent() was called. I.e. a separate consumer clock
id needs to be used to control a clock mux. Hmm, however this issue
doesn't affect anything on s3c24xx, since such composite clocks have
been introduced only starting from s3c64xx.

I guess to create multiple aliases now a new helper function could be
created that takes as an argument a clock index (as in enum exynos4_clks)
and adds a clkdev lookup entry to a matched clk object. Probably it
wouldn't be difficult to rework the driver to be registering all clkdev
entries like this.

Do you have your source tree in any public git available ? ;) Perhaps
I could find a time to adjust and try it with s3c2440 based board.
