True :( You can dig deeper in the history of this series if you wish.
- first Geert Uytterhoeven proposed to use CLK_RUNTIME_PM there
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/11/6/319
- second I proposed to introduce smth. like "clkops-clocks", "pm-clocks" there
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/6/12/436
or "fck-clocks"/"opt-clocks" later.
^failed.
So, this implementation picks up all clocks for each device, which is ok for
Keystone 2 and, because it's platform specific.

Yes, but your previous comment is still actual :(
