Subject: [PATCH 0/4] SA11x0 Clocks and removal of Neponset SMC91x hack

This mini-series (which follows several other series on which it
depends) gets rid of the Assabet/Neponset hack in the smc91x driver.

In order to do that, we need to get several pieces in place first:
* gpiolib support throughout SA11x0/Assabet/Neponset so that we can
  represent control signals through gpiolib
* CCF support, so we can re-use the code in drivers/clk to implement
  the external crystal oscillator attached to the SMC91x.  This
  external crystal oscillator is enabled via a control signal.

This series:
- performs the SA11x0 CCF conversion
- adds an optional clock to SMC91x to cater for an external crystal
  oscillator
- switches the Neponset code to provide a 'struct clk' representing
  this oscillator
- removes the SMC91x hack to assert the enable signal

This results in the platform specific includes being removed from the
SMC91x driver.

Please ack these changes; due to the dependencies, I wish to merge
them through my tree.  Thanks.
