This seems like a bad idea, we shouldn't have two different drivers
managing the same register without explicit and visible coordination
with each other, this is at best asking for trouble as you've found
here. I've not looked in detail but I think if you want to use the
clock framework here then this driver should register a clock provider
for the clock hardware in the IP block.
How does this work with runtime PM, what happens if the clock driver
decides to change something while the device is powered down?
