A better way is to switch to use CLK_OF_DECLARE() in driver for things
that need them early, but this node is actually useless in MT7622.
So we drop it.

To confirm: the patch this fixes was added in v4.20-rc1, which means
that this current patch doesn't apply to any of the stable trees.

Did we miss something?
