They have a similar register interface, but I'm told they are not the same IP.

We've got some patches on the list that add some extra registers to
the driver for the ast2500. If we decide to merge the drivers, that
support will need to be included.

Andrew was working on that, I'll let him follow up on the details.

The clock isn't called PCLK in the Aspeed documentation (similarly for
the timer, but I was too slow to speak up in that case).

I'm trying to find some time to write a proper clock driver so it's
clear how the clocks are set out in the Aspeed.

Cheers,
