Right, we should be able to reuse the clock names. Though I'm not really
sure how the Samsung clocks maps to those used on i.MX, as the names are
a bit generic. Maybe someone from Samsung could shed a bit of light on
this.

On i.MX6 the clock names (which I have to agree are pretty bad) map as
follows:
pcie_axi: host controller main register/bus access clock
pcie_ref_125m: pcie phy reference clock

sata_ref_100m: pcie bus 100MHz reference clock
lvds_gate: bad abstraction. Decides if the reference clock is sourced
internal (i.e. the 100MHz ref clock above) or from an SoC external
source. We should really find a better way of representing this in the
clock tree.

Regards,
Lucas
