yes, the use of dts doesn't require the use of CLK_OF_DECLARE and can
use platform_driver_register

but my drvier not use platform_driver_register to register clk and use
CLK_OF_DECLARE to match of_clk_init.
of_clk_init() is there to register clks that are needed for early init,
i.e. the clockevent/clocksource or the root interrupt controller
(irqchip). Otherwise, it isn't necessary to register clks via
of_clk_init().
okay, I got it.
and,  the time driver  get clock by CCF that ask loongson2 clock driver
use CLK_OF_DECLARE

to match of_clk_init.   because  the timer_probe  is very early and the
timer driver was use TIMER_OF_DECLARE

to match time_probe.

If you have a time driver that gets clks, register those early with
CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER() and then have a platform driver for the rest of
the clk tree that registers clks later.
okay, I got it.  and this series patch I will use platform driver.
later, if the loongson2 time driver use the

CLK_OF_DECLARE style I will make a alone time clk driver for it that
use  CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER()

It can be the same file if you want. But then it can't be a module. Up
to you what you want to do there.
okay, I got it.
