Will make a note to update Documentation from now on.

Will merge and upload the whole set, first thing tomorrow.

I thought of making it mandatory, And TMU on Exynos5440 may not need
second clock for accessing the second base. I Will confirm with the Exynso5440
specs and update accordingly.

Right
Sure Tomasz,
Creating a new compatible makes handling this case really simple
Thanks for reviewing.
