The cleanups leading upto this patch look fine, but I am not sure about
this patch itself. Ideally, we should have moved to drivers/clk also.
And shared code with keystone too since the PSC and PLL implementations
of the two architectures are quite similar.

I could think of this as an intermediate step while we get there, but I
am afraid of the churn that would cause. For example, if we reuse
keystone driver, we will be using clk_psc and we can get rid of the
davinci_clk that this patch introduces.

So unless there is big roadblock to moving to drivers/clk, we should
probably do that in one shot.

Thanks,
Sekhar
