It's getting a bit messy, what if there comes another SoC version
which has some other modification of exynos5433 registers structure?
We would need another variant of HAS_MODIFIED_MUX_STAT flag and we
could easily get lost while trying to determine which modification
is which. How about indicating explicitly it's an exynos7 bits
layout and renaming the flag to something like

#define CLK_CPU_HAS_E7_MUX_STAT	(1 << 16) ?
