It would be good to get Krzysztof and Robs view on whether they agree
with the above rationale or whether they would still like to see the
names updated.

Personally I like the consistency, grepability and the fact the
current name encodes whether it is a gate, divider into the name.
Seeing 'sss' or 'ip' as a clock name in the driver code doesn't tell
you a lot without having to then cross reference with the dts.

Is there some rationale and/or benefit behind having the shorter
names? The only thing I could think of is trying to partially re-use
this file on future SoCs like gs201 which might be clocked
differently, but then these exynos clock drivers seem to be SoC
specific anyway.

Anyways apart from that:
