Since PL2501 uses the same code as PL2

When registering several chips off the same DT node (with different pin

This patch adds common clock framework support for arch-vt8500.
WM8650 support is included in preparation for devicetree support.
Each SoC has a seperate initialization function due to no

It extends the perf record '-g' option with following arguments:
'fp' - provides framepointer based user
