I don't know why that will happen for CPUs sharing clock line.

@Mike: What do you think? I think we can get a clock API for
this.

Yeah, that would be much better.

I was actually comparing all the clock-cells, whatever there number
is to make sure "clocks" properties are exactly same. Anyway
memcmp will still guarantee that.

Thanks for your review.
