definitly no objection from me (especially as the file only contains
constant definitions, so copyrightability might be debateable),
but could you:

(1) Adapt all rockchip clock headers in one patch, so we don't do this
    for each header invididually
(2) Do the same for the power/rk3* headers, but in a separate patch
    as this goes through a different tree


Thanks
Heiko
