Xen hypervisor drivers might replace native OS drivers. The result is
that some important clocks that are enabled by the OS in the non-Xen
case are not properly enabled in the presence of Xen. The clocks
property enumerates the clocks that must be enabled by the Xen clock
consumer.

An example is a serial driver enabled by the hypervisor. Xen must
consume and enable these clocks in the OS to ensure behavior continues
after firmware configures the UART hardware and corresponding clock
harder.

Up to now, the workaround for this has been to use the Linux kernel
command line parameter 'clk_ignore_unused'. See Xen bug

http://bugs.xenproject.org/xen/bug/45

too.

To fix this, we will add the "unused" clocks in Xen to the hypervisor
node. The OS has to consume and enable the clocks from the hypervisor
node, then.

Therefore, check if there is a "clocks" entry in the hypervisor node
and if so consume and enable the given clocks. This prevents the clocks
from being disabled by the OS.

Changes in v3: Use the xen.txt description proposed by Michael. Thanks!

Changes in v2: Drop the Linux implementation details like clk_disable_unused
	       in xen.txt.

 under /hypervisor with following parameters:
