Yes it can be dropped by having duplicate clock node for UART having only
dev_id. This is required because DT kernel does the clk_get with only dev_id
and non-DT kernel only with con_id. In DT kernel clk_get is done from generic
code of_platform_serial_setup:of_serial.c and in non-DT kernel is done from
platform code, davinci_serial_setup_clk:arch/arm/mach-davinci/serial.c

Please let me know your opinion on this.

Thanks,
Prakash
