Sorry for the late response. AFAICT, all the providers that are used in imx6 and imx7 are using (with this patchseries) the clk_hw_register (unless I'm missing something here).

As for the wrappers, they need to stay in until the last user of the clk based API is switched to clk_hw based. That means all the remaining imx platforms (1 through 5, and then 8). I chosed to do the imx6 and imx7 first because these are easier to find. Once this is in, I'll move on with the imx8 and then the imx1 through imx5 (which are harder to find nowadays). Thanks for helping with the review on this.
