Yes but it should be included in any clk-provider drivers too.

Please see below comment for the other critical clk with no parent.

Oh that's bad. Why do the clks stay on when we try to turn them off?

Sure. I keep asking but nothing is done :(

This doesn't really answer my question. If the source is an external phy
then it should be listed as a clock in the DT binding and the parent
should be specified here. Unless something doesn't work because of that?

Sure. It just doesn't make sense to create clk structures and expose
them in the kernel when we just want to turn the bits on and leave them
on forever. Why not just do some register writes in probe for this
driver? Doesn't that work just as well and use less memory?
