Subject: [PATCH RFC 3/6] clk: meson: g12a: mark fclk_div3 as critical

On Amlogic Meson G12b platform, the fclk_div3 seems to be necessary for
the system to operate correctly.

Disabling it cause the entire system to freeze, including peripherals.

This patch patch marks this clock as critical, fixing boot on G12b platforms.
