The framework should be able to deal with unordered registration. I am 
not very familiar with the mvebu driver though, do you have a valid 
reason to require a specific order?

Why would you need to do so? After a quick inspection on the code, I see 
you may have problems on mvebu_clk_gating_setup() when getting the 
default parent clock name, but I believe you could solve it in an easier 
way by using of_clk_get_parent_name().

Cheers,

Emilio
