[RFC,PATCH 1/2] Add a common struct clk

We currently have 21 definitions of struct clk in the ARM architecture,
each defined on a per-platform basis. This makes it difficult to define
platform- (or architecture-) independent clock sources without making
assumptions about struct clk, and impossible to compile two
platforms with different struct clks into a single image.

This change is an effort to unify struct clk where possible, by defining
a common struct clk, containing a set of clock operations. Different
clock implementations can set their own operations, and have a standard
interface for generic code. The callback interface is exposed to the
kernel proper, while the clock implementations only need to be seen by
the platform internals.

This allows us to share clock code among platforms, and makes it
possible to dynamically create clock devices in platform-independent
code.

Platforms can enable the generic struct clock through
CONFIG_USE_COMMON_STRUCT_CLK. In this case, the clock infrastructure
consists of a common struct clk:

struct clk {
	struct clk_operations *ops;
	atomic_t enable_count;
};

And a set of clock operations (defined per type of clock):

struct clk_operations {
       int             (*enable)(struct clk *);
       void            (*disable)(struct clk *);
       unsigned long   (*get_rate)(struct clk *);
       [...]
};

To define a hardware-specific clock, machine code can "subclass" the
struct clock into a new struct (adding any device-specific data), and
provide a set of operations:

struct clk_foo {
	struct clk	clk;
	void __iomem	*some_register;
};

struct clk_operations clk_foo_ops = {
	.get_rate = clk_foo_get_rate,
};

The common clock definitions are based on a development patch from Ben
Herrenschmidt <benh at kernel.crashing.org>.
