A personal taste: as clk IDs and clk indexes in mpfs_cfg_clks[] array are
different thing (ID for clk_periph_timer is already different) and the
CLK_RTCREF - RTCREF_OFFSET here is in the end CLK_ENVM = 3 maybe easier to
follow the code would be to add new macros like:

#define CLK_CPU_OFF 0
#define CLK_AXI_OFF 1
#define CLK_AHB_OFF 2
#define CLK_RTCREF_OFF 3

and change the CLK_PARENT() macro something as follows:

#define PARENT_CLK(PARENT) (&mpfs_cfg_clks[CLK_##PARENT##_OFF].hw)
