This is triggered for all devices with clocks instantiated through
CLK_OF_DECLARE().
E.g. on r8a7791/koelsch ("... | sort | uniq -c"):

      1 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/audio_clk_a'
      1 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/audio_clk_b'
      1 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/audio_clk_c'
      2 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/cpg_clocks@e6150000'
      1 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/m2_clk'
      2 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp0_clks@e6150130'
     34 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp10_clks@e6150998'
      2 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp1_clks@e6150134'
      2 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp2_clks@e6150138'
     10 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp3_clks@e615013c'
      3 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp5_clks@e6150144'
      8 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp7_clks@e615014c'
      4 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp8_clks@e6150990'
     22 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp9_clks@e6150994'
      1 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/pcie_bus_clk'

Corresponding DTS is arch/arm/boot/dts/r8a7791.dtsi.
