This causes multiple build errors in linux-next, please fix asap or
drop the patch again. My feeling is that it's probably too late to
fix it for v4.10, but that's up to Viresh and Rafael of course.

Not critical but the use of those macros obfuscates the DT interfaces
here and made it harder to analyse what was going on.

Also, a couple of them are lacking a DT binding.

You really can't do this: 

../drivers/cpufreq/brcmstb-cpufreq.c: In function 'get_frequencies':
../drivers/cpufreq/brcmstb-cpufreq.c:71:17: error: implicit declaration of function '__clk_lookup';did you mean 'key_lookup'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  cpu_ndiv_int = __clk_lookup(BRCMSTB_CLK_NDIV_INT);
                 ^~~~~~~~~~~~

__clk_lookup is an internal API for the clk providers.

In particular, relying on undocumented internal names of the
clk provider in a device driver is inappropriate.

This is a simple typo, also causing the build to fail:

    FATAL: drivers/cpufreq/brcmstb-cpufreq: sizeof(struct platform_device_id)=24 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_platform__<identifier>_device_table=392.
