There's another approach by Marek[1]. Can you work together on a
solution? I think we should step away from trying to make the critical
flag work during clk registration, and turn on the clk during provider
registration instead. That hopefully makes it simpler. We can keep the
clk flag of course, so that the clk can't be turned off, but otherwise
we shouldn't need to make registration path check for the property.
