This is bit tricky and required more discussion before merging it, 
let me reopen the old discussion which I had started some time back -


RTC OSC clock is required to configure clocksource systemtimer for the 
kernel, and it is important when you get into PM related features.

Please refer the below commit for more reference,

No its not. Its good that we have so many developers contributing, so now 
its just working together. Recommend you to ping once before spending time, 
so that we can collaboratively work together, even I wouldn't mind you to 
pick/own on-going development and submit it.
