I've followed up on the idea of creating a parent bus node. My attempt
using simple-pm-bus ran into a couple of significant issues that suggest
it's not the correct path.

First, the TRM doesn't seem to specify an address range for this bus.
The range I used in my test was only for the PVT controller itself,
which would be an incorrect abstraction in the device tree.

Second, simple-pm-bus requires its child nodes to use the PM runtime API
(pm_runtime_resume_and_get, etc.). Forcing this on consumer drivers like
the PVT sensor seems like an inappropriate dependency.

Additionally, I discovered that the PWM driver has a similar problem,
silently failing because another clock, CLK_PERISYS_APB1_HCLK, is not
enabled.

The most correct solution likely involves refactoring the clock parent
relationships in clk-th1520-ap.c. However, as a more immediate and less
invasive fix, I propose we apply the CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED flag for both
CLK_CPU2AON_X2H and CLK_PERISYS_APB1_HCLK in the v2 patch. This will fix
the boot hang and the PWM issue while we consider the larger clock
driver changes separately.

Does that sound like a reasonable plan for the v2 series?
