Yet again, this illustrates why converting to DT causes backwards
steps in drivers: the conversion of devm_clk_get() to of_clk_get()
necessitates a clk_put().

Can someone please provide a devm_of_clk_get() function before we
accept any more patches doing this kind of thing?

The other issue is that kirkwood-dma.c and kirkwood-i2s.c should be
one driver; they're not separate hardware on these platforms, so that
needs fixing before coming up with any kind of DT model for this stuff.
