This patch broke audio support on DB820c. Now the divclk1 clock is not
registered, as drivers/clk/clk-gpio.c doesn't have CLK_OF_DECLARE().

Stephen, What would be the best way to fix this? Add CLK_OF_DECLARE
support to clk-gpio.c? Or simply move divclk1 from /clocks into a
separate device?

What is the rule, which clock drivers must support such device-less
binding using /clocks/foo nodes?
