the reason is that...

[ from the patch ]

> GATE(CLK_SCLK_IOCLK_SPI3, "sclk_ioclk_spi3", "ioclk_spi3_clk_in",
> - ENABLE_SCLK_PERIC, 20, CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT, 0),

... the sclk_ioclk_spi3 is new in exynos5433 and there is no
implementation for enabling/disabling that particular clock...

... while in this case your question makes sense, but it depends
on which clock the device (s3c64xx) is requesting (from the DTS).
In any case, I kept it consistent with the SPI1, which falls in
the same case, as in mainline we don't have any DTS for
exynos5433 (yet!).

Thanks,
Andi
