Have you looked at the OMAP1 code for this?
Today it is not using the clock framework at all. So first we need to
change the OMAP1 code to use the clock framework for dmtimers and then
we can move the function.

It is needed so that OMAP1 can use the clksel functions and so we can
migrate OMAP1 and OMAP2+ to use a common function for changing the
parent clock.
