OK, I'll use "exynos3250-adc" compatible string instead of "exynos3250-adc-v2".

I tested this patch suggested by you.
But, devm_clk_get returns always '-ENOENT' on follwong two cases:
Case 1.
ADC dt node in exynos3250.dtsi don't include 'sclk' clock as following:
adc: adc@...C0000 {
compatible = "samsung,exynos3250-adc";
reg = <0x126C0000 0x100>, <0x10020718 0x4>;
interrupts = <0 137 0>;
clock-names = "adc";
clocks = <&cmu CLK_TSADC>;
#io-channel-cells = <1>;
io-channel-ranges;
};
Case 2.
ADC dt node in exynos3250.dtsi don't include 'sclk' clock
but, exynos3250 clock controller don't support CLK_SCLK_TSADC clock as following:
adc: adc@...C0000 {
compatible = "samsung,exynos3250-adc";
reg = <0x126C0000 0x100>, <0x10020718 0x4>;
interrupts = <0 137 0>;
clock-names = "adc", "sclk";
clocks = <&cmu CLK_TSADC>, <&cmu CLK_SCLK_TSADC>;
#io-channel-cells = <1>;
io-channel-ranges;
};
So, I think exynos-adc needs to use 'needs_sclk' field suggested by Tomasz Figa.

OK, I'll use 'sclk' clock name for special clock of ADC.
