Yeah, I noticed that, too.
It just adds the same xlate method and data pointer to the list.
So it's harmless, but unneeded.

It's using CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER(), which clears OF_POPULATED:
/*
* Use this macro when you have a driver that requires two initialization
* routines, one at of_clk_init(), and one at platform device probe
*/
#define CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER(name, compat, fn) \
static void __init name##_of_clk_init_driver(struct
device_node *np) \
{ \
of_node_clear_flag(np, OF_POPULATED); \
fn(np); \
} \
OF_DECLARE_1(clk, name, compat, name##_of_clk_init_driver)
Sorry for failing to tell you. I did know about that flag, but only remembered
due to your problem report.
Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
