Yes, these change actually. Some of them are common like the xo, bimc,
nocs and qdss, but the rest varies as count (21-47) and naming at the
different SoCs. I have a few that fit into the same numberspace, but
with some newer SoCs we will have issues. So we can have the same
definitions for the common clks, and the rest could be added to the
same header file with SoC prefix.
