Yes, It is difficult and to make existing clk-exynos4.c more complicated.
Exynos4415 has fewer difference from existing clk-exynos4.c and
different parent source of mux.

For exmaple about PLL,
There are different PLLs between Exynos4412 and Exynos4415.
- Exynos4412 has APLL, MPLL, EPLL, VPLL.
- Exynos4415 has APLL, EPLL, G3D_PLL, ISP_PLL, DISP_PLL and MPLL.
Also, MPLL of Exynos4415 was included in CMU_DMC scope.

Chanwoo Choi
