I think my old problem was with earlyprintk and a core clock getting
disabled.  See (44ff025 clk: exynos5420: Remove aclk66_peric from the
clock tree description).  I think I've seen others solve the same
problem with the concept of "critical clocks".

I agree that regulator and clock frameworks allow very different "hacks".  ;)
