I don't think this is a good idea, because how would code that relies on
the CLK_IS_TYPE_XTAL flag know whether 0 means that the clock is *not*
crystal or if the flag is simply not defined?

There are many clocks which *are* crystal but don't define this flag
(obviously, because it didn't exist).  That's the reason why I added the
CLK_IS_TYPE_DEFINED flag...

If you want to get rid of this flag, you should traverse all clocks and
set the CLK_IS_TYPE_XTAL on all those that are crystals.
