Hmm, looking at the datasheet, DCLK and CLKOUT registers seem to be part 
of the pin controller. I wonder if there is really a need for different 
driver and device node to handle them.

Could this be simply made a part of the s3c24xx pinctrl driver, 
extending it to register also a clock provider under the same DT node?

Best regards,
Tomasz
