All the clock registers are under above four system controllers, 
discussed with Mark and Haojian two months ago, I think using above
same four binding strings is enough for clk module.
On second thoughts, there really some problems for future hisilicon
code upstream, how about change back to the first version of this
patch set, just like following:
+		sys_ctrl: sys_ctrl {
+			compatible = "hisilicon,sysctrl", "syscon";
+			#address-cells = <1>;
+			#size-cells = <1>;
+			reg = <0x0 0xf7030000 0x0 0x2000>;
+			ranges = <0 0x0 0xf7030000 0x2000>;
+
+			clock_sys: clock1 at 0 {
+				compatible = "hisilicon,hi6220-clock-sys";
+				reg = <0 0x1000>;
+				#clock-cells = <1>;
+			};
+		};

Thanks,
