I posted the patches for final review and upstream merging.

Not sure what the follow-on work is that you mention.  But if it's 
additional development work, such as modifying the linux-omap clock code 
to use your recent clkdev code, that should really be discussed 
separately, and patches posted for comment to linux-omap, so the OMAP 
community has a chance to test it first.  People on that list seem to be 
pretty reasonable...

regards,
