Until I saw Vladimir's mail this morning, I wasn't aware of any mainline
driver that's using the EPIT devices. I found that the clocks are
missing when I tried to use EPIT with a company-internal driver that's
not suitable for mainline integration.

Still, I think that merging this patch does no harm. If the EPIT devices
are present in the DT, we should add all resources they're using.

Thanks & best regards,
