> This clock does not come through ZynqMP Clock framework. We are initializing it in this 'sdhci-of-arasan' driver and getting only the clock name from "clock_output_names" property. So I think devm_clk_get() will not work here for our case.

Well, I guess you need to register an OF clock provider to allow the
clock lookup to work. Apologize, but I don't have the time, currently
to point you in the exact direction.

However, in principle, my point is, there should be no difference
whether the clock is registered via the "ZynqMP Clock framework" or
via the mmc driver. The *clk_get() thing need to work, otherwise I
consider the clock registration in the mmc driver to be a hack. If you
see what I mean.

I think this is the wrong approach, see why further above.
