Actually probably the driver/clock/omap can even do even less
initially. There probably even no need to remap clocks there.

As long as the DT clock driver understands that a board specific
auxclk is specified in the DT it can just call clk_add_alias() so
the driver will get the right auxclk from cclock44xx_data.c.

Then other features can be added later on like to allocate a
clock entirely based on the binding etc.
