The purpose of the patch is to constrain the clock network between
"clk_hw" and "clk_sonsumers". The output source of this clock network
may come from gate, mux, divider, etc.

Yes, the purpose is also to ensure "safety". From a strict perspective,
this constraint indeed does not belong to the clock controller. However,
the source of the potential hazard comes from the clock driver, and we
have already identified this hazard. Therefore, I think it is better to
avoid it in the clock driver?

From the perspective of HW, the timing constraints of the clock are for
the entire clock network with the same name. The output source of this
clock network may come from PLL, gate, mux, etc. The multiplier range
of the PLL can also achieve a similar effect. If this approach works,
we don't need to define the multiplier range for the PLL (PS: Our
current multiplier range is limited to the case where "n" is not divided).

I think that the clock configuration exceeding the timing constraints
is a hidden danger that all chips have and face, but this hidden danger
is not easy to be exposed?
For instance, if the routing of a clock network is close to the clock
or data bus of other modules, and this clock network is wrongly
configured to a frequency beyond the constraints, causing crosstalk
that affects the normal operation of other modules. If such a situation
occurs, it will be very difficult to troubleshoot. How should this
situation be handled more reasonably?
