I will.

Briefly, clocks with the higher index than the data clock array can't be 
used. I've this issue:
[    0.427054] of_clk_hw_onecell_get: invalid index 135
[    0.429525] of_clk_hw_onecell_get: invalid index 69
[    0.442998] of_clk_hw_onecell_get: invalid index 70

That means CLK_TOP_SSUSB_PHY_CK_EN, CLK_IFR_SSUSB_REF and 
CLK_IFR_SSUSB_XHCI aren't working when I need them. So my USB doesn't work.

I've under-estimated the impact of modifying the defines, I will try to 
find another way to fix the regression in the drivers directly.

Thanks for your review.
