There's also clk_bulk_get(), which allows you to specify the number of
clocks and their consumer IDs that you want to request. That seems like
it would allow us to both avoid the repetitive calls to clk APIs and at
the same time allows us to specify exactly which clocks we need. Would
that not work as a compromise?
