You are right. On further thought, the clock belongs to the WCN hardware
and its power sequencing is already handled by the wcn3988-pmu driver.
So the hci_qca driver does not need to manage it at all.

In v2 we dropped the hci_qca changes and moved the clock property to the
wcn3988-pmu node in DTS instead:
