All the words that were in the cover letter for this single patch
should have been here in the commit text instead. If we were to
look back on this commit text a year from now we'd learn that
things got easier for clock management, but not *why* things got
easier.

Cover letters for single patches are practically useless by the
way. That's because they duplicate the diffstat that is already
in the patch and summarize the subject of the patch. Please don't
send cover letters for single patches.

Doesn't CONFIG_COMMON_CLK imply CONFIG_HAVE_CLK? So drop that
config check? Also, devm_*() functions are documented in
Documentation, so please update that file too, if it even makes
sense to have this new API.
