Sorry, guys, I'm little bit confused.
In the discussion pointed by Neil not-by-one-increment ID with public and
private parts are acked by Krzysztof due to explicit explanation in the
gxbb header. Have I to comment out my situation and stay it as is?

BTW, I think changing IDs value would not affect logic, because
it's not connected to driver logic 'by values', but 'by constants
names'. We can expose/hide anything from device tree bindings, it will
not change the clk driver logic.
