[RFC PATCH 0/2] Propose critical clocks

[Marco Felsch]

Hi Stephen, Michael,

I know it is a busy time right now, but maybe you have a few minutes for
this RFC. I know it is incomplete, but the interessting part is there
and it would fix a real issue we encountered on the imx8mm-evk's.

Regards,
  Marco
