Problem is that twl_i2c_write_u8() calls twl_get_regmap() to get the
regmap. This requires struct twl_priv to be populated which does not
happen until twl_probe has run. That hasn't happened at the point when
omap4xxx_dt_clk_init() gets called.
Is there a way to defer a clock driver until twl_probe() has run?
