I have tested the clk driver using this dummy consumer. So in a sense it
"works" and can be used as an example on how to write a real clock
consumer node. Thus I see some value in this example node - even if it
does not match to any real world HW. If I had to use the clk from this
PMIC and write HW description I would appreciate this dummy exaple. I
can drop it if you insist - but I would at least like to hear what is
the downside on having it here?
