The arm side is working already :)
However we just support the busclock on ARM [1]. For the first shot
stick to that clock, too.

It seems that arch/powerpc/platforms/512x/clock.c implements a clock
interface. I think the p1010 should implement something similar. (Note:
I'm not a ppc guy :)

I'm looking forward for new patches.
