Hi Uwe

At least in the use case Sebastian needs it for, we don't need an "in
general" solution. It is used early boot time to see if the boot
loader left the clock running. The other user of the clock is the
ethernet driver, which we know cannot change it yet, because driver
probing has not started yet.
