This is triggered for all devices with clocks instantiated through
CLK_OF_DECLARE().
E.g. on r8a7791/koelsch ("... | sort | uniq -c"):
1 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/audio_clk_a'
1 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/audio_clk_b'
1 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/audio_clk_c'
2 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/cpg_clocks@...50000'
1 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/m2_clk'
2 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp0_clks@...50130'
34 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp10_clks@...50998'
2 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp1_clks@...50134'
2 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp2_clks@...50138'
10 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp3_clks@...5013c'
3 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp5_clks@...50144'
8 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp7_clks@...5014c'
4 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp8_clks@...50990'
22 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/mstp9_clks@...50994'
1 Couldn't find a device for node '/clocks/pcie_bus_clk'

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
