Yes, it works currently. But there are a few problems: we declare
STUART's UARTCLK with dev=NULL (all other UARTCLKs are declared with
proper devices).
Therefore,  I consider it as a hack and would like to remove it. As
the clocklib allows
to register multiple children clocks with different names, I'd propose
to separate UARTCLK
and SIRCLK functions of STUART clock. The UARTCLK will be used (as
usual) by the pxa uart driver. And IrDA will use SIRCLK.
