I think you got it right, just wanted to mention that we can and
probably should make the clk_get_parent_* calls in the consumer API to
return per-user clk instances but that we need to make sure first that
callers call clk_put afterwards.

This should also allow us to remove the reference to struct clk from
clk_hw, which is at best awkward.

Tomeu
