No. This applies on top of another change already queued in the amlogic
clock tree. It can't go through the MMC tree at the moment.

This clock is not critical in mainline right now, so
1) I could merge this and it and in practice there would be no
   regression. The problem you had would still be there until the MMC
   change lands

2) Or you can wait for the MMC stuff to land and re-submit this in
   the next cycle.

Your choice. IMO, (1) is fine.
