Propagate struct device for divider clocks registered through clk-mtk
helpers to be able to get runtime PM support for MTK clocks.

Sidenote: I think we still need to call pm_runtime_enable() (or some other
function) on the underlying device before any clk_hw_register() calls are
made for the clk core to pick up runtime PM support?


The clk_core checks...

if (dev && pm_runtime_enabled(dev))
core->rpm_enabled = true;

...at __clk_register() time, and there's no way to enable it *later*, which
is something that may or may not be good for us.

We could call pm_runtime_enable() on the clock driver itself (so, in simple_probe)
but that's something I didn't want to do right now because this needs a rather big
amount of testing on multiple SoCs.

But yes I agree with you on that we still need to *flip the switch* to actually
enable rpm support. These commits are meant to make us able to do that in one line,
instead of one line per file :-P
