Overall, the SoC clock as such has nothing to do with board specific, so
leave it default (enabled) in SoC.dts - just want to make sure that the
clk-parent selection doesn't get in the way of platforms and is a sane
default.

I find audio clock muxing a bit of a pain (only next to DSS clocking,
but that is another story).. so will depend on you folks for help.
Looking at https://software-dl.ti.com/tisci/esd/latest/5_soc_doc/am62ax/clocks.html#clocks-for-board0-device
and Clocking spec, setting this:
+ assigned-clocks = <&k3_clks 157 0>;
+ assigned-clock-parents = <&k3_clks 157 8>;
as default implies:
pll2_hsdiv8 output - which looks like the default mux value anyways.. I
am ok for it being explicit, but wondering if that works for boards that
do not use this default.

Could you guys confirm?
