Is this really correct?

The documentation for CLK_IS_BASIC is pretty slim, but it says:

   #define CLK_IS_BASIC            BIT(5) /* Basic clk, can't do a to_clk_foo() */

However, we *do* have a to_clk_*() macro in this driver:

struct cp110_gate_clk {
        struct clk_hw hw;
        struct regmap *regmap;
        u8 bit_idx;
};

#define to_cp110_gate_clk(clk) container_of(clk, struct cp110_gate_clk, hw)

If you read the commit log of commit
f7d8caadfd2813cbada82ce9041b13c38e8e5282, which introduced the flag, it
says:

    clk: Add CLK_IS_BASIC flag to identify basic clocks
    
    Most platforms end up using a mix of basic clock types and
    some which use clk_hw_foo struct for filling in custom platform
    information when the clocks don't fit into basic types supported.
    
    In platform code, its useful to know if a clock is using a basic
    type or clk_hw_foo, which helps platforms know if they can
    safely use to_clk_hw_foo to derive the clk_hw_foo pointer from
    clk_hw.
    
    Mark all basic clocks with a CLK_IS_BASIC flag.

We are in the case where we have our own clk_hw_foo structure, and a
to_clk_hw_foo macro to derive the clk_hw_foo from clk_hw.

According to this, the CP110 clocks are *not* basic clocks, and
therefore we shouldn't have this flag. Perhaps just the memset() is
missing.

Thanks,

Thomas
