clk: Update docs after removal of clk-private.h
Currently Documentation/clk.txt describes an obsolete techinique to statically define struct clk objects. This capability was removed by b09d6d991025("clk: remove clk-private.h") and is no longer supported. The documentation describing the feature should be removed.

Part 5 - static initialization of clock data
|
||||
|
||||
For platforms with many clocks (often numbering into the hundreds) it
|
||||
may be desirable to statically initialize some clock data. This
|
||||
presents a problem since the definition of struct clk should be hidden
|
||||
from everyone except for the clock core in drivers/clk/clk.c.
|
||||
|
||||
To get around this problem struct clk's definition is exposed in
|
||||
include/linux/clk-private.h along with some macros for more easily
|
||||
initializing instances of the basic clock types. These clocks must
|
||||
still be initialized with the common clock framework via a call to
|
||||
__clk_init.
|
||||
|
||||
clk-private.h must NEVER be included by code which implements struct
|
||||
clk_ops callbacks, nor must it be included by any logic which pokes
|
||||
around inside of struct clk at run-time. To do so is a layering
|
||||
violation.
|
||||
|
||||
To better enforce this policy, always follow this simple rule: any
|
||||
statically initialized clock data MUST be defined in a separate file
|
||||
from the logic that implements its ops. Basically separate the logic
|
||||
from the data and all is well.

Part 5 - Disabling clock gating of unused clocks

Sometimes during development it can be useful to be able to bypass the
