I'll send up the next patch changing this clock to "GATE_A" which will
allow global lookups. ...then I'll use clk_get() as Mike requests.
We can see if we like it better and can always move back to
__clk_lookup().

There may be a possible case where this is needed for PM debug, but I
don't _think_ it's needed in all the common cases. It's also not
sufficient, I think.
Specifically:
1. This patch only gets "aclk66_peric", not the UART clock itself. It
makes the assumption (required for earlyprink) that the bootloader
left enough clocks on to use the UART. That is roughly documented in
Documentation/arm/Booting. Mostly this patch is making sure that we
don't screw up the nice environment that the bootloader left for us.
This solution has the nice side effect that we don't need to try to
figure out which actual UART is active / grab the right clock.
2. Without grabbing the real UART clock then PM debug would start
failing anyway when the system disables all unused clocks in
late_init.
3. I would assume that if there was a problem here it would have
surfaced in 5250. 5250 doesn't have the problem we're addressing here
since there's no gate clock for "aclk66_peric" (or if there is one,
it's not described in our clock tree).
4. Assuming that you've got the serial port specified as a console=
port, I think the core will use s3c24xx_serial_pm to enable the clock
and leave it on.
...I haven't got myself setup for PM debug upstream right now (would
be good to get it configured / working locally eventually), but I
think if we have problems to solve there then we should solve it in
code related to PM debug. How does that sound?
Also note that on ChromeOS we always have DEBUG_LL enabled (though we
usually don't have earlyprintk on the command line).
