I'm really not convinced by this either. It prevents you from doing
anything useful out of these clocks, and the only thing you can
actually do with it is calling clk_get, and that's pretty much it.

What if you some platform needs to adjust the rate of one of the two?
Or wants to cut one but not the other for any reason? You're just
screwed, and you can do anything about it, because you have no way of
telling what "clk0" is used for.

Especially, since what you really want is to access the clocks by
index, that you can do with of_clk_get.

Calling it "bus" and "phy" or whatever it's used for both provide a
way of differentiating the two, yet being rather generic. And if we
need to add a third one, I'm pretty sure we will be able to come up
with a generic name then.
