That will hopefully keep the size Since all clks used for a chip are defined in the same driver file, I actually can use clk_hw pointer directly, that will cut down the size of this driver code, and also easier for users to look for parents for one clk (only need to look at driver file).

But I still need to add many .fw_name, that will not be a small count. Thanks, Chunyan
