Not entirely sure, but most likely new clk driver(s) for daVinci under
drivers/clk/ti/ new set of structures to describe the clocks if the ti_clk* is
not applicable I guess for starter. Support for DT, non DT boots as most of
daVinci is not booting with DT and most likely never will.
It might help to have different daVinci boards for testing the transition. I
only have OMAP-L138-evm. I don't think it is enough for testing an entire
architecture for this big change...

Tero might have better estimates on what is involved when switching an
architecture to CCF from custom, but at least synchronized API - so we don't
need to convert drivers at least.
