yes that was my initial choice as well; in the end I opted to do it in 
the clock driver because of it being a value that will not have to ever 
change for the SoC and - maybe more importantly- because of not having a 
DT property available for the primecell pl011 uart where to  specify the 
value (so I thought this was a less intrusive implementation).
