I am having difficulties following the proposal

for audio, managing the platform clocks from the kernel is only useful 
for Baytrail, and the code handling the CRITICAL flags is really 
equivalent to having a is_valleyview() test in the machine drivers. I 
don't quite understand the S0ix-related changes and I also don't get how 
using plt_clk_0 makes things better or wonder if audio on Swanky worked 
before the commit 7735bce05a9c ('ASoC: Intel: boards: use devm_clk_get() 
unconditionally'.

In other words, I don't know if we are dealing with a platform that only 
started working with 7735bce05a9c and does need a quirk to make use of 
plt_clk_0 or a fundamental issue with clock/power management.
