Unfortunatelly, it cannot be optional. I've explained here why:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240401171933.bqmjsuanqsjvjosn@CAB-WSD-L081021/

"""
The clock source sys_pll_div16, being one of the GEN clock parents,
plays a crucial role and cannot be tagged as "optional". Unfortunately,
it was not implemented earlier due to the cpu clock ctrl driver's
pending status on the TODO list.

Could you please provide guidance on whether there is any alternative
approach that could potentially make it possible?
