Please send this patch instead of adding more clocks to the power domains.
This way we will avoid adding more dependencies to userspace (DT ABI).
Likely those clocks are also needed to access any device in that power
domains.

Later, once the runtime PM for clocks get merged, a patch for exynos542x
clocks driver can be made to replace IS_CRITICAL with proper runtime
handling.
