we also need to handle clk in suspend/resume procedure, so
I think you need to put bus_clk inside struct of_serial_info..

for the 'optional', we can interpret it's optional for other vendor
UART, but a must required clk for SpacemiT's k1 UART controller

would it better to guard this inside a compatible test or even introduce
a flag in compatible data?

if (of_device_is_compatible(pdev->dev.of_node, "spacemit,k1-uart")) {
bus_clk = devm_clk_get_enabled(dev, "bus");
..
}
