I understand your point, but taking into account the fact that FIRC 
clock should be used in most scenarios, would it be acceptable to not 
export this 'clksel' property in the devicetree bindings and simply use 
the FIRC clock by default in the RTC driver ?

At least for this patchset, in order to ease the review process. If 
configurable clock source support would want to be enabled and exported 
via bindings for this S32G2/S32G3 RTC driver, then CCF registration for 
this clk mux could be added in future patches.
