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 ?

S905X and newer SoC's uses DMA engine for crypto HW and they
don't required clock input to work. Clock input is needed for
blkmv engine.

Therefore, I'm not sure that it is needed for GXL too (and the second
interrupt line). I tested it on vim1 board witouht them and everything
works correctly.

Amlogic says that the crypto HW based on DMA engine doesn't require
a clock input. GXL uses DMA engine, so, I think we have to remove
whole clock controller calls in the next series from driver/dts/bindings.
And the second interrupt line from crypto node in meson-gxl.dtsi too.
