Yes, that's the problem here. If you could do it, I would appreciate it,
but if you don't have time then I can handle this. The changes needed
are mostly trivial - basically every common samsung_clk function gets
new argument to a context structure. The branch to base on would be
for_3.16/exynos5260 in samsung-clk tree.

Well, for me this could go as is, but rules should be followed and the
rules are ACK or 3 weeks and a ping without response. So we need to wait
at least to next Wednesday to bypass DT review.
