the sys_*_sel muxes and sys_*_gate are _ro...

...but the sys_*_div aren't
Is this on purpose? If it is: why can the divider be changed at
runtime but the mux can't?

We need to add the "sys_pll_div16" input to the dt-bindings since they
should always describe the hardware (regardless of what the driver
implements currently).
I'm not sure how to manage this while we don't have the CPU clock
driver ready yet but I'm sure Rob or Krzysztof will be able to help us
here.

I suspect that this comes from the clock measurer IP block and if so
the dt-bindings should probably describe this input. But again, we'd
need to keep it optional for now since our clock measurer driver
doesn't even implement a clock controller.

As mentioned in [0] we'll work with Heiner to see if we can improve
the decision making process of the PWM controller driver so that we
can just have .flags = 0 here.
This applies to all other occurrences of the same comment about the rtc clock.
