Are we still talking about of_clk_get_from_provider()? Or are we talking
about comparing struct clk pointers? From what I can tell this code is
now broken because we made all clk getting functions (there's quite a
few...) return unique pointers every time they're called. It seems that
the driver wants to know if extclk and clk are the same so it can do
something differently in kirkwood_set_rate(). Do we need some sort of
clk_equal(struct clk *a, struct clk *b) function for drivers like this?

Also, even on DT this could fail if the DT author made internal and
extclk map to the same clock provider and cell.
