OK it was not such a big deal, but many many thanks for fixing this
up! :-)

OK.

This is very likely because the clock tree has a name like "dev:ssp0"
encoded for this device, and if you don't nail it down like that the
device name will be the same as the node in your device tree and
then clock lookup will fail.

The "real fix" is to convert the clock drivers to use device tree so
the drivers can just refer to the phandles to figure out what clock
node they need.

Along with the DMA channel mapping this is one of the major
roadblocks to finalizing the device tree adoptions.

OK cool I guess you will do this for the LPC32xx? Or are you testing
this on some other platforms?

Yours,
