Formally it's a 'struct clk_hw', and 'struct clk_hw_gate' does not exist.

Sure, a function name can be selected arbitrary, however because in this
particular case type analysis operates on 'struct clk_hw', it would fail
to separate 'struct clk_gate' from 'struct clk_divider', a little hint
in the naming may be helpful.

I don't insist on my preference, of course your acceptance is sufficient.
