Subject: [PATCH RFC 0/2] clk: add metag specific gate/mux clocks

This adds a metag architecture specific clk-gate and clk-mux which
extends the generic ones to use global lock2 to protect the register
fields. It is common with metag to have an RTOS running on a different
thread or core with access to different bits in the same register (which
contain clock gate/switch bits for other clocks). Access to such
registers must be serialised with a global lock such as the one provided
by the metag architecture port in <asm/global_lock.h>

RFC because despite extending the generic clocks there's still a bit of
duplicated code necessary. One alternative is to add special cases to
the generic clock components for when a global or callback function
based lock is desired instead of a spinlock, but I wasn't sure if that
sort of hack would really be appreciated in the generic drivers.

Comments?
