Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/3] clk: bd718x7: Enable the possibility to mark the clock as critical

If the clock is used to generate the osc_32k, we need to mark
as critical. clock-critical has no binding description at the moment
but it's defined in linux kernel

bd71847: pmic@4b {
...
rohm,reset-snvs-powered;

#clock-cells = <0>;
clock-critical = <1>;
clocks = <&osc_32k 0>;
clock-output-names = "clk-32k-out";
...
}

Purely judging the kerneldoc for of_clk_detect_critical - you may have
hard time getting this accepted.

I think you're working on a very valid problem though. Maybe you could
see if you could align your effort with Marek?

This is the reason for RFC. I have already seen the usage of this in

ainline/master:drivers/clk/st/clk-flexgen.c:
of_clk_detect_critical(np, i, &flex_flags);
mainline/master:drivers/clk/st/clkgen-fsyn.c:
of_clk_detect_critical(np, fschan, &flags);
mainline/master:drivers/clk/st/clkgen-pll.c:
of_clk_detect_critical(np, 0, &pll_flags);
mainline/master:drivers/clk/st/clkgen-pll.c:
of_clk_detect_critical(np, odf, &odf_flags);

I have seen the Marek patcheset now. I don't know if they works anyway
for a clock that is a part of MFD controller
