To be honest it doesn't look like your patch is a particular issue here
- there's wider process problems, for example we've managed to go
through most of the release cycle and so far the only changes showing up
in -next are:

Viresh Kumar (6):
      SPEAr: clk: Add VCO-PLL Synthesizer clock
      SPEAr: clk: Add Auxiliary Synthesizer clock
      SPEAr: clk: Add Fractional Synthesizer clock
      SPEAr: clk: Add General Purpose Timer Synthesizer clock
      SPEAr: Switch to common clock framework
      SPEAr13xx: Add common clock framework support

Mark Brown (1):
      ARM: 7376/1: clkdev: Implement managed clk_get()

Sascha Hauer (1):
      clk: add a fixed factor clock

viresh kumar (1):
      ARM: 7392/1: CLKDEV: Optimize clk_find()

and obviously there's quite a bit more work which has been going on.
