Hi Rabin,

I reviewed it with help of git diff --word-diff and didn't found any silly
mistake in the replacement of clk with clk_core :)

Isn't something wrong here? For common clk case shouldn't
this be:

> +#define clk_to_clk_core(clk)  (&clk->clk)
> +#define clk_core_to_clk(core) (container_of(clk, ...))  //not getting into the exact format here

Sorry, if i am missing basics.
