Usually clk tree takes includes and hosts that in a stable branch
for arm-soc maintainers to take. It seems that now arm-soc
maintainers are asking that dts files use plain numbers and then
switch to defines later after -rc1.

Should I go apply patch 2 myself so I can apply patch 3 to the
clk tree? Personally, I think this is fine because git doesn't
care about duplicate commits anyway and this is just #defines
we're talking about. Alternatively, you can host patch 2 in a
stable branch on v4.12-rc1 that I can pull into clk tree and then
apply patch 3 on top of and merge up into clk-next. Or you can
send me a PR for this clk driver and I can merge it into clk-next
where patch 2 is the parent of the clk driver change.
