Is it ok if I split this patch into 2, one adding clock alias
'mout_apll' and another one fixing the alias names 'mout_mpll',
'moutcore' and 'armclk'?

If you are going to submit the cpufreq driver patches for v3.11, then we
can ignore this patchset. Otherwise, I would prefer to get these patches
merged for v3.11 to get cpufreq working. Once the driver changes are
incorporated, we can very well modify these later.
