An alternative that doesn't require any change in the driver would be to 
use the optional but recommended clock-output-names property from the 
common clock binding.

Your DT would then look something like the following

 > 			compatible = "fixed-clock";
 > 			clock-output-names = "mmc";
 > ...
 > 		clk_i2c: clk at 1 {

 > 			clock-output-names = "spi";
 > ...

Cheers,

Emilio
