I have just tested, this do not needed.

My platform do enable CONFIG_HAVE_CLK,

for ls3a5000 + ls7a1000, my system do not provide device tree support,

that's is to say, there is no DT support.


For ls3a4000 + ls7a1000 platform, the system has DT support, but don't 
has CLK drivers implement toward the clock tree.

typically, our platform's firmware will do such thing(setting a default 
working frequency).


When I first saw etnaviv, I'm also astonishing.

I don't know why there so much clock controllable.

As far as I can understand, my system/hardware have only one clock,

It shall corresponding to the core clk.
