I commented this patch on v2 and the comment keep on being un-addressed.

The SoC either:
* has a clock that is required for the IP to work
* Or does not

It is not something you are free to provide or not.

For the record, I find very hard believe that some SoC would have clock,
and other would not, for the same HW.

Isn't it more likely that the clock just happens to be left enabled by
the bootloader on some SoC and it conviently allows to ignore it ?
